Ice Out Contest

You can support ADK's Education programs and perhaps win a little cash for yourself. Take a guess when the ice will be gone on Heart Lake. Half the proceeds from ticket sales will go to the winner, half will go to ADK's Education Department to buy much-needed equipment. Details here.
