Not only will there be lots to do outside, but there are indoor events to keep you warm, including a live animal presentation.
“The Minnesota Zoomobile will be here this year for a live animal presentation,” said Murawski.

“Our most popular things that people want to do it to get out on the lake and ice fish,” said Murawski.
While folks are trying their luck ice-fishing, there are other activities that may not be as well known for attendees to try, like kick-sledding.
“The kind of look like a dog sled, someone sits so you have a rider. The other person stands and kind of kicks, hence the name, and pushed the kick sled and then jumps on and rides down the hill,” said Murawski.
