Each year, the Zwolle Loggers and Forestry Festival honors the Oldest Logger of the Year with a special ceremony during the festival, which is held each year during the second weekend in May. Chosen this year is the beloved George Edwin Ezernack, widely known by his nickname, “Zorro.”

He was born and raised in the Zwolle area to the late Abram and Lela Ezernack and had your typical childhood for someone growing up there. He attended St. Joseph’s Catholic School for the most part and was a Zwolle Hawk for a while, but left formal education to work with his father at Ezernack’s Garage.
