Via DN Western Region Commodore Chris Berger:
A lot of snow has fallen on the Western Region over the last week and there is not much hope of finding regatta quality ice. But we haven’t given up hope just yet. Perhaps there are some lakes that have been spared. But don’t hold your breath.
Final call Thursday PM, February 18, 2021.
