The starters canon firing on the morning of February 11, 2012 will not only signify the beginning of the Frozen Torch Snowshoe Race but also the beginning of the Annual Winter Carnival.  Join us in cheering on the snowshoers as they race to the finish line!  There will be games and activities for ages 1 to 100!  We will open our climbing wall and 200 ft. zip line and you can soar through the winter skies.  A new addition this year will be broomball on our homemade ice rink.  As always we will offer winter crafts for the kids and there will be a snow sculpture competition with prizes awarded at the end of the day!  Enjoy Storytime in front of the fireplace in Kresge Lodge where you can also enjoy a FREE HOT  chicken noodle soup, chili and cornbread lunch courtesy of TBAISD and Antrim Early Childhood.  Free transportation will also be offered from various location in Antrim County.  Please bring one canned good or non-perishable item per person to support the Bellaire Community Food Pantry!
