It’s that time of year again to think about snow, ice and BRR cold weather! Are you ready?!?! Gun Lake Winterfest 2023 will be here before we know it! Last year was a huge success thanks to your help. We had a few glitches to begin with, costs were up considerably from the previous year, but we still were able to donate over $4000 to our local charities! So here we are again asking for your help to make the 2023 Gun Lake Winterfest a success. This year’s main charity is Family Promise of Barry County. We are hoping that we will be able to contribute as much or more than last year.
