For those in and around South West Michigan.

16th Annual Reed's Lake Ice Fly
Saturday, February 5, 2011
Noon-4pm
On frozen Reed's Lake in Grand Rapids, MI
Bring your family to Rose's Restaurant to watch an amazing event on the ice. Yes, we have kitefliers with snowboards on their feet boosting into the sky! Warm up on the deck of Rose's with FREE hot dogs and hot chocolate, compliments of Rose's! We'll also be building kites with the kids, so for a great family activity, come try a little winter kite flying.
Check out the photos from last year here.

I'll be flying my red Rage or yellow Montana from my buggy with newly fabricated ice blades. Track me down and introduce yourself. Tom
