"Lots of ice around the tower and all across the harbor. It's going to be a while before the tower goes in."

Is the end near for this year's Ice Classic?

The ice has turned black and it's about 4-inches this plus the tower has a slight list. Open water to the east too.

In the water on April 15th at 3:40 PM!

The tower just rolled to the back and went over, I happen to be on the road when it went down.

We'll sort the tickets and post the winner as soon as possible.

Thanks for your support of the Beaver Island Community Center.

The apparent winner is Bill Welke with a time of 3:46 PM, just 4-minutes off the actual time of 3:40 PM. The other close entryâ??s are shown below. Bill will split the purse of $865 with the Community Center.

Again, thanks for your support of the Community Center
