It is held in early and mid-February with the plunge and fireworks on the last Saturday night of Polar Fest. Polar Fest was started in 1996 by Erika Johnson\, previous owner of Lakeside Tavern. She loved winter and wanted to see some sort of celebration of winter by the lake and outside her restaurant. Coincidentally\, Ron Zeman\, former Develop DL board member\, heard of people jumping into a hole in the lake to raise money for an organization. He took that idea to the Boys & Girls Club and the “Polar Fest Plunge” was born. Unfortunately\, in 2002 a lack of support left Polar Fest with only its key event\, the Polar Plunge. \nIn 2005\, a group of crazy\, winter-loving citizens came together to reinvigorate and warm up Polar Fest. Since then\, Polar Fest has since continued with the pinnacle event being the Polar Fest Plunge into Little Detroit Lake. However\, many other activities including golfing on the lake\, polar explorer presentations\, dances and more have been added. In 2008\, fireworks on the last Saturday evening were added\, becoming one of the highlights of the week-long winter celebration. Don’t miss one of Minnesota’s most fun winter festivals! \n\nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Polar Fest in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota in February! \nTags: Detroit Lakes Polar Fest\, Detroit Lakes Ice Palace\, Detroit Lakes Beer Tasting\, Polar Fest Plunge\, Vern Turner Memorial Bonspiel\, Detroit Lakes Winter Activities \n\nBest Polar Fest Hotels in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota\nThe Lodge on Lake Detroit & The Spa Within\nThe only way to improve Polar Fest is staying in one of the best Polar Fest Hotels in Detroit Lakes.

Here eastern deciduous hardwoods\, northern coniferous forests and western tallgrass prairie converge – creating a rich assemblage of both plants and animals.  Though the landscape has been altered by the influences of human history and past management\, the refuge remains largely intact with a functioning ecosystem and retains an untamed character for current visitors to enjoy\, use and respect. From the vibrant emergence of spring woodland wildflowers to the rich colors of autumn to the quiet hush of winter\, people come to revitalize their spirit and connect with a rich wildlife heritage. \nThe refuge is home to a large population of nesting trumpeter swans. Habitat conservation efforts address species such as the nearly threatened golden-winged warbler\, woodcock\, and ring-necked ducks. You’ll find Minnesota state icons including the common loon\, showy lady’s slipper\, red pine tree\, morel mushrooms\, wild rice and walleye. Tamarac National Wildlife Refuge website. \nAbout The Friends of Tamarac\nEstablished nearly 30 years ago this nonprofit group is made up of an active 10-15 member board and over 300 members. The Friends sponsor educational programs and events\, build observation platforms and pathways\, generate thousands of grant dollars for water quality and habitat projects\, host a popular nature photography contest\, and so much more. We are an advocate for wildlife refuges and passionate about protecting wild places for generations. The volunteers of Tamarac donated over 8\,000 hours of service just last year.

Dick Beardsley is a compelling motivational and inspirational keynote speaker at Fortune 500 companies\, non-profit organizations\, conferences\, conventions\, corporate events\, fundraisers\, galas\, sporting events\, prisons\, schools\, and drug treatment centers. \nRead MoreDick is referred to as a running legend in the United States and is best known for his incredible race in the 1982 Boston Marathon. On a very hot day\, that race was dubbed the “Duel in the Sun” as he battled world recorder holder Alberto Salazar down to the finish line. Both broke the American record: Salazar won a record time of 2:08:51; Beardsley’s time was 2:08:53\, finishing 1.6 seconds later\, placing second. He was at the height of his professional running career. \nIn November 1989\, tragedy struck Dick’s life. While using an auger to lift corn into a bin on his Minnesota farm\, Dick became entangled in the machine as it literally began to tear him apart. Not expected to live or walk–much less ever run again–he managed to survive. \nBut that was just the first of a series of events that would forever change his life. During the next few years\, Dick was involved in a severe car accident. Later he was hit by a truck while running and later still\, rolled his vehicle in a snowstorm. Finally\, while hiking one day\, the ground gave out beneath him and he fell off a cliff. Each time he ended up in the hospital and had multiple surgeries to try and put him back together. \nDue to the large amount of pain medication he was taking\, he became addicted–and that’s when his life really started to spiral out of control. It has been a long an difficult road back\, but Dick has been celebrating every day of his sobriety since February 12\, 1997.Dick Beardsley Marathon Gallery\nPhoto Credit Dick Beardsley Races.\nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Dick Beardsley Marathon in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota in September! \nTags: Dick Beardsley Run\, Dick Beardsley Rrace\, Dick Beardsley Marathon\, Beardsley Run\, Detroit Half Marathon\, Detroit Lakes 5k\, Detroit Lakes triathlon\, Detroit Lakes Annual Events\, Detroit Lakes Activities\, Detroit Lakes Things to Do \n\nBest Hotels in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota\nThe Lodge on Lake Detroit & The Spa Within\nBest Western Premier The Lodge On Lake Detroit\, a Lifestyle Lakefront Minnesota Hotel\, offers a great location and numerous amenities that make us the premier lakefront lodging destination for Historic Holmes Theatre attendees.

SUMMARY:Detroit Lakes Polar Fest Ice Palace at City Beach
DESCRIPTION:BOOK NOWCALL NOW\n2022 Detroit Lakes Polar Fest Ice Palace at City Beach\nDon’t miss the annual Detroit Lakes Polar Fest Ice Palace Lighting Ceremony on February 11\, 2022 at the Detroit Lakes City Beach at 7:00 p.m. The Polar Fest festivities begin with the lighting of King Isbit’s Throne\, Royal Courtyard and Polar Fest Ice Palace. The Ice Palace and other related activities will be open to the public through February 11-27\, 2022.  The typical 10-day event will be 17 days this year. Professional ice sculptures will be on display in the nearby Detroit Lakes City Park starting the following day as a part of the MN Sn’Ice competitions. The second part\, a snow sculpture competition for area high school students\, will be held later in the event (check schedule). \nA lot of planning and advance work go into creating this wonderland of ice. In January\, huge ice blocks are hand-harvested from Detroit Lake. Over the next month\, a volunteer crew will construct a Royal Palace fit for a “King Isbit”. Over the course of Polar Fest an Ice Palace evening light show and so much more will amaze and entertain. Come enjoy the snow and ice because it is so Sn’Ice! NOTE: Photo Credit (above): Jack Davis Photography \nEvent Location:\nDetroit Lakes City Beach\nCorner of Washington Avenue and West Lake Drive\nIce Harvest DL Face Book Page\nIce Harvest DL website\nPhone: 218-847-2938 | Email: info@iceharvestdl.org \n \nPhoto Credit: Jack Davis Photography\nFrom Idea to Reality: The Denison Polar Fest Ice Palace\nAn idea was sparked by Ken & Helen Foltz while visiting the 2017 St. Paul Winter Carnival where they toured the St. Paul’s Ice Palace. Problems occurred with early plans that looked likely to doom the project\, but after encouragement from local business owners and prospective sponsors\, the Ice Harvest DL Committee embraced optimism and altered those plans. With the support of the City of Detroit Lakes\, the foundation plans were moved to the DL City Beach. The DL City Park was made available for a Palatial Playground. The Pavilion was made available for a History Exhibit and warming house. New ideas and dreams began to sketch a new\, crazy\, bigger\, better plan! \nOn the morning of January 11th\, 2018\, the wind chill was just about -35* below zero. A dedicated group of local volunteers and a professional lake ice cutting company\, Wee Kut Ice\, began the first DL harvest. For the next three days\, they would work in the brutal cold from dawn to sunset. Due to the brutally cold weather\, the ice was around 22″ thick. Each block being harvested was about 22″ x 44″ x 25″. About 1\,300 blocks were harvested over three days\, weighing in at a total of over one million pounds of ice. Construction of the Ice Palace began on January 17th\, 2018. When the Palace was completed\, work began on smaller ice structures such as couches\, benches\, and even a bookcase with a lamp; all carved entirely out of lake ice. Other ice blocks were used to create a border fence around what became known as the Palatial Playground. Ice was even used to build giant bonfire pillars! \nThe Grand Lighting took place on February 7th\, 2018 as a kickoff event for Polar Fest. On February 18th\, 2018\, the Ice Palace was demolished. The clear\, clean lake ice was absorbing the light of the sun every day and puddles were forming in the streets of Detroit Lakes. As a safety precaution\, the Palace had to come down. The Ice Harvest DL Committee met again the next week and began to ask\, “What’s next?” and has done that since. Be there for the lighting ceremony and get the answer to that question! \nVolunteer to Help\nThere’s a lot of work that goes into the harvest\, construction and demolition after Polar Fest ends – and that doesn’t include the “Palace Volunteers” needed during Polar Fest! See the Ice Harvest DL Committee Website or Face Book Page for more information\, online forms\, etc. \nAbout Polar Fest\nPolar Fest is held annually in mid-February with the plunge and fireworks on the Saturday night of President’s Day weekend. Polar Fest was started in 1996 by Erika Johnson\, previous owner of Lakeside Tavern. She loved winter and wanted to see some sort of celebration of winter by the lake and outside her restaurant. Coincidentally\, at the same time\, Ron Zeman\, former board member for Develop DL\, heard about people jumping into a hole in the lake to raise money for an organization. He took that idea to the Boys & Girls Club and the “Polar Fest Plunge” was born. Polar Fest continued until 2002 when lack of support left Polar Fest with only its key event — the Polar Plunge\, but no other activities. In 2005\, a group of crazy\, winter-loving citizens came together to reinvigorate and warm up Polar Fest. Since then\, Polar Fest has continued with the pinnacle event being the Polar Fest Plunge into Little Detroit Lake plus many other activities ranging from golfing on the lake to presentations by polar explorers to dances in the sand. In 2008\, fireworks on the last Saturday evening were added and that has become one of the highlights of the week-long winter celebration. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Polar Fest Ice Palace Lighting Ceremony in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota in February! \nTags: Polar Fest Ice Palace\, Detroit Lakes Polar Fest Ice Palace\, Polar Fest Ice Palace Lighting Ceremony\, King Isbit’s Ice Palace\, Detroit Lakes Polar Fest\, Detroit Lakes Ice Palace\, Detroit Lakes Winter Activities \n\nBest Polar Fest Hotels in Detroit Lakes\, Minnesota\nThe Lodge on Lake Detroit & The Spa Within\nThe only way to improve Polar Fest is staying in one of the best Polar Fest Hotels in Detroit Lakes.
