King of the Ice
We regret to inform everyone that this year's event is being canceled due to safety concerns. While present ice conditions are marginal but adequate, we feel that the forecast of spring-like days and predicted rains will deteriorate the ice levels - certainly making it potentially unsafe for the 400+ people who join us each year. We hope to see you on the ice next year.
Note that the Bethel Big Burn is still on schedule for 2/17!

There are several ways to sponsor, and different sponsorship levels - something to appeal to everyone. As a club, we've accomplished so much over the past year (scholarships for college and summer camps, youth programs in shooting and archery, high school shooting sports affiliation, Hunter Ed courses and NRA courses - just to name a few). We count on the support of the community thru event attendance, raffle sales, donations and sponsorships to help make this happen. Please consider being a sponsor or helping to promote this - it certainly goes to a good cause!
