Furry friends and tasty treats at Winterfest

ROSCOMMON- Despite the lack of snow and inconsistent ice conditions, Winterfest still happened the weekend of Feb. 17 at the Lyons Township Park. 

Although the Fishing Derby and Sled Races were canceled, the festival still had a great turnout. The dog parade was a new addition this year as well as the cornhole tournament. Of course, the annual chili cookoff did not disappoint!
