We had a great day yesterday at the WRWA Ice Fisheree on Fox Lake. This is the third year that WRWA hosted it, and the first year we brought a team. We may not have caught any fish, but we had a great time, stayed warm, and won some cool door prizes so we counted it as a win.

Halfway into the first month of January - how did that happen? We're thinking 2016 is going to go fast, because we have all sorts of fun stuff to look forward to. Here's a preview of where we're going to be - make your plans now to come and see us at these awesome events.
