Thanks to those that made Polar Fest a success
I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to all those that made this year’s Polar Fest another success. With events ranging from the return of the Breakfast Rotary’s Poles ‘N Holes Fishing Derby on Little Detroit Lake to Polar Explorer Will Steger at the Historic Holmes Theater, vintage snowmobile racing, golfing, motorcycle stunt exhibitions, boot hockey, youth fishing derby and ice harvesting demonstration, the 5K Freeze Your Buns Run, topped off by spectacular fireworks at the city beach and Polaritaville Dance, it was fantastic!
