Happy 2022 to YOU!
I hope everyone has had a great start to 2022!! It’s been a rather cold winter so far and I don’t anticipate we’ll have any concerns with Lake Winni freezing enough to have the Ice Runway open soon! I hope you’ve taking the time to get outside and enjoy all the fun winter activities our community and natural surroundings have to offer. Whether it’s snowshoeing, ice fishing, ice skating at Mill Pond (kudos to Alton Parks and Rec and the Alton Fire Department for setting that up for our community!), exploring a white wonder walk in the woods or taking in all the adventure on the snowmobile trails!
Enjoy it and embrace it!
As you’ll read below, we have so many fun events planned for big Annual Winter Carnival Fundraising Event on February 20th from 10 am -3 pm! We’re still looking for volunteers to help the day of the event and this is also the last weekend to sign up to be a vendor or sponsor at the event!
Speaking of volunteers…. I’d like to highlight that you don’t have to own a business to be a member of the ABA! Yes, our mission is about helping and supporting our businesses thrive and grow BUT it’s also about incorporating our community in that mission too and it can’t be done without the residents of ALTON! Soooo if you have pride in your community and want to make a difference where you live, then we’d love for you to JOIN US AS A COMMUNITY/RESIDENT MEMBER! This membership option is FREE and you can join here!
We are truly grateful for all our members, sponsors and community support!! Our association is dedicated to promoting community involvement & economic growth in our town and surrounding areas! Without you, the ABA would cease to exist and prosper! Please keep on doing what you’re doing and remember to be local, buy local and support local!
I’ll see you on the ice in a few weeks!
