Winterfest returns to Boonedocks
From staff reports
Glen Arbor’s Winterfest, the anticipated mid-winter event, takes place annually the Saturday of President’s Day weekend. This year’s perch fishing contest has been canceled due to a lack of ice on the Glen Lakes. But the chili cook off will be held on the deck of Boonedocks restaurant in Glen Arbor on Saturday, Feb. 18, from noon-3 pm.
Winners will be crowned as the event wraps up around 3 pm. Proceeds from this event are given out on senior scholarship night at Glen Lake School to deserving students to help defray college tuition. This is a family friendly event, just be sure to dress for the weather.
Admission to the chili cook-off is $10 per person, which includes unlimited chili samples. $5 for kids ages 6-12 and seniors 70 or older, kids under 6 enter for free.
