I guess we won't need to have the snow brought in for this weekends snow events in Grand Haven~ Winterfest 2008. The local news said tonight that we have a total of 19 inches right now and more to come. So all you card board sled competitors...get building those sleds!

The race begins this Saturday Jan 26th at 11am at Mulligans Ho Winterfest 2007 llow. Registration begins at 10am. All entrants must wear protective head gear. Call me for the general rules if you are interested in joining the fun. There will be prizes for Best Wipe Out, Best Use of Cardboard, Most Creative, etc.

Let the race begin!!!!

(even our local Coast Guard joins in the fun! What a sled guys!)

Duane ~ This is such a huge event here in Grand Haven. The racers really put time and effort in building the most amazing card board sleds!! And with all this snow we have...should be a fun fun day! There is also a nice warming building with a huge fireplace to keep warm.

Renee, It will be interesting to see if you made it to the event! That's an awful lot of snow they were predicting. I hope it went well and you'll be back with pictures to share.

Alecia & Carole ~ What a fun fun day! We had over 100 sleds in the race, all sizes and designs. Lots of snow made for some great "wipe outs". Everyone had a great time. I did get a couple pictures, but was so busy running around I didn't get as many as I had hoped for. But I will post some for everyone to see.

Renee, Glad to hear all went well. I'll be looking for the photo's
