Looks like Mother Nature is bringing snow back to Oakland County! And just in time,
for we are less than two weeks away from the sixth annual Fire and Ice Festival in
downtown Rochester, Michigan to be held January 25, 26, 27.
The festival is a family friendly salute to winter and there are no charges for
any of the winter events. Translation: FREE!

To add to the fun a spectacular fireworks display begins at 8 pm on Friday and Saturday
night near the corner of East Third and Water Streets and a concert by the teen singing
group TRUE, precedes fireworks each night. It's also a great time to walk down the streets
and visit with local merchants. Another bonus: The Big Bright Light Show will illuminate downtown stores in a rainbow of colors from 6 pm to midnight each day of the festival.

If you love nature and close to home winter adventure it's time to remind Mother Nature
to let it snow and snow and snow.
And more good news, your children can borrow snowshoes!
Last year the winter festival was cancelled: Why? No snow.
