Annual Ice Fishing Venue May Re-locate

Consideration is being given to re-locating the annual ice fishing outing to Clear Lake. One of the places being considered for lodging is the Heartland Inn, located about 20 feet from the shore of Clear Lake. The rate would be $76.99 for a two person room which have mostly two queen size beds.

I will post additional information when a decision is made.


Additional Information on the January 27 & 28 Swap Meet

An admission fee of $3/person (including Ike members) is being planned with kids 16 and under admitted free. The fee for vendor tables is planned to be $30/table and $25 for Ike members. Sale fee for boats, trailers, blinds etc. is planned to be $25.

If you have any ideas or would like to help in lining up venders etc. contact one of the committee members: Sonny Satre, (Chairman), 480-1728, Tom Holm 255-5164, Mike Lucas 865-4168, Keith Kirkpatrick 285-4202, Earl Mincks 285-9673, Joe Gavin 681-4694, Rod Kent 285-2358, John Dowell 287-3643, Fred Bauman 577-5627 or Dan Young 326-1063.
