It’s that time of the year again!

While it may not feel like it now, spring, and the warmer weather it brings, is right around the corner. To go along with that, the Haliburton Echo is once again excited to offer its Head Lake Ice Out contest.

We’re asking anyone and everyone to send in their best guess of when, precisely, the final lump of ice will dissolve into Haliburton’s Head Lake.

Send the date and time you think it will happen, along with your name and contact number by 5 p.m. on Monday, March 15 in order to qualify. You can send in your guess via email to mike@haliburtonpress.com, by phone at 705-457-1037, or by dropping a note through our door at 146 Highland Street.

The person whose guess is closest to the time of the ice melt will win a one-year subscription to the Haliburton Echo, and a free lunch of up to $50 on us from any local restaurant.

Good luck, and happy guessing!
