The roar of chainsaws gashing away at tree trunks filled the area, but this is far from the forest.

Lumberjacks with Scheer’s Lumberjack Shows performed for a crowd of approximately 200 people in the Molecular Biology Building parking lot Saturday night, competing in seven different events ranging from log rolling to chainsaw events.

This is the second Veishea for the Hayward, Wis.-based group, which has performed for more than 5,000 people all over the U.S.

Dave Weatherhead, owner of Scheer’s Lumberjack Shows, said he might be hiring people to work and was enthused to hear that Iowa State has a Forestry Club that competes in similar events.
