Paddlewheeler American Duchess stops Saturday in La Crosse

Saturday, a stop in La Crosse by the American Duchess cruise ship.

It’s one of three stops this month at Riverside Park, after more than a year without any visits.
The boat will be at the park from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. Saturday. It will again be there from 7 a.m. – 6 p.m. on July 23 and July 30 for viewing.

“Discovering communities like La Crosse, steeped in history and tradition connected to the river, are what make our river cruises so appealing to guests seeking uniquely American river experiences,” Michael Hicks, a company spokesperson said.

The boat is one of four with the American Queen Steamboat Company, which is out of New Albany, Ind.
