LAKE SHORE — Golfers did not have to wait for the snow to melt as they took part in Gull Lake's Frozen Fore on Saturday, Feb. 25.

Participants teed off at nine different holes located at businesses around Gull Lake — including Zorbaz, Cowboy's restaurant and Quarterdeck Resort — attempting to hit tennis balls (highly visibly in snow or ice) into a variety of different holes the local businesses constructed.

The Frozen Fore was one of a number of Gull Lake events, including the Frozen Flop on Friday, Feb. 24, where the brave took a dip in icy waters at the tent on Hole-in-the-Day Bay, as well as Food Fest on Sunday, Feb. 26, where local restaurants went head-to-head to determine the best in the area.

Proceeds of all the Frozen Fore winter weekend events are donated to Confidence Learning Center and The Outreach Program of Brainerd Lakes.
