Empire Winterfest: a "Common Sense Optional" event
The annual Empire Winterfest will be held next weekend (Feb 8-9). Highlights from past years have included a Friday night bonfire and ice skating on South Bar Lake, kids games, curling and the the legendary Polar Bear Dip on Saturday and the Winterfest Parade from the top to the bottom of Empire's Base Hill.
There's a whole bunch of information from Empire Winterfest 2007 on the Leelanau Blog. You can see more photos from the Empire Polar Bear Dip and check the Empire Chamber web site.
