Detroit Lakes' annual Polar Fest celebration gets underway on Friday, Feb. 10, continuing through Sunday, Feb. 26. In between, more than 50 events are planned.
Though there is still snow on the ground, it's no longer deep enough for snowmobile riding in most places, so the Detroit Lakes-based ULTRA snowmobile club recently wrapped up its winter grooming season with a volunteer appreciation event. This year the club used 11 groomer operators some paid, but mostly volunteer to groom over 3,500 miles of trails throughout the season.
