Outdoor winter event planners and safety officials are anticipating a busy season following the unexpected rise of outdoor enthusiasts earlier this year.
Near-record crowds flocked to the lakes and mountains this summer and fall despite Covid-19 restrictions – or perhaps because of them.
Now, barring a lack of ice and snow, or more heavy state restrictions, ice fishing derbies, winter carnivals, and pond hockey events scheduled for February and March will be held. But organizers aren’t sure what to expect for turnouts.
