A final decision for the Derby won't be made until next week, but clearly, everything is looking great right now with the cold weather. Not just for the Derby, but for snowmaking for skiing, ice skating, etc. Yesterday, a bob house was installed on Meredith Bay, there are a couple on 19 Mile Bay, and other bob houses are popping up on Winni and the other lakes. The long range forecast shows temperatures at 32 degrees and below for the next 10 days minimum, so we're feeling pretty positive right now and getting excited about the Derby. It's funny, I went through the ice as a child when ice skating in MA, so I NEVER go out on the ice, even when I see Ford F-350s out in 19 Mile Bay ... can't understand the lure of ice fishing!!
