For Your Information

The weather forecast sounds ok for tomorrow, however, as we all know it changes
quickly in Minnesota.  We have been fortunate in past years to have held this event rain or shine, we hope we can do the same this year.

If we have any weather related announcements we will have that information on  KMGK 107.1 FM, our Facebook and website pages.

Remember all events are FREE including a picnic lunch.  You can come and go during the day as your schedule allows, but all families must stop at the registration table, register their children and fill out a waiver.  All children should be accompanied by an adult.

Bring your bike and helmet if you want to be in the bike rodeo or if you want Jake's Bikes to do a safety check for you.

We look forward to seeing many of you tomorrow, Saturday, June 3rd  for the 22nd Annual Glenwood Lakes Area Kids' Day - Take a Kid Fishing & Bike Rodeo & Obstacle Course.  The Bike Rodeo will start promptly at 3:00 p.m.
