Snowfest is Here!
Co-chair Kari Fan said things so well that I thoughtI would use her words instead of mine:
"Ok, so we probably won't have snow but we will be FESTIVE :) There's a LOT of amazing things happening this year...our OWN Snowfest IPA (brewed by Mt. Pleasant Brewing Co), a SOLD OUT Distinguished Service Awards Reception (do we need to mention INCREDIBLE silent auction items including a $3000 value Chef's dinner for 15-20 at Hampton Greens Farm)...a shot ski... a 1/2 of a NASCAR where you can change a tire Friday night in the entertainment tent...a record NINE restaurants participating in Battle of the Bowls...so much greatness that you really just need to come down every night & check it out!
How can I help this week? (I know you're asking yourself)...we have lots of empty volunteer shifts still open. Please take a look at this schedule and reply back to me where you can help out.
Teams: we still have room for Trivia, Snowvolleyball & Snowcornhole teams & Euchre participants (solo play format)...so we encourage you to register if you're interested in participating. www.muskegonsnowfest.org
Spread the word about Snowfest! Talk about it on facebook & let your friends and family know to come downtown this week! Shoreline Inn is offering $69/night rooms Saturday. Promotional Code: Snowfest
SILENT AUCTION ITEMS: If you have promised me a donation, I will need to get this from you by Monday night. I am home all day Monday if you need to drop off to me (email me & I will give you my address) OR meet us at Racquets Monday night between 6-7 for our final Snowfest committee meeting."
I want to extend a huge Thank You to Kari Fan, Nick Bessinger (our Snowfest co-chairs) and the entire Snowfest Committee for a fantastic Job! It is time to enjoy all of your hard work and preparation. Let's have a Fantastic week!
