It's Heikki Lunta time!

Negaunee Downtown Development Authority

NEGAUNEE, MI— “Hank Snow” is coming to party in Negaunee Friday and Saturday.

Other activities include snowshoe lantern tours of Historic Old Town Friday night, the Teal Lake Ice Fishing Tournament Saturday morning, a “Freeze Yer Fanny Fatbike Race” at 6:00 Saturday night, and—to cap things off—fireworks at 8:30 p.m.
