Saturday morning is the parade at 10 am, ending with the annual bed race finishing by Pineview Highlands golf course. Parade float judging later in the day.
An official Tip Up Town 2016 badge ($10) gets you lots of free stuff.
FREE STUFF: Free parking at the high school and free shuttle service from there to the TUT site. Free carnival rides, petting zoo and pony rides. Of course, plenty of free family entertainment all day long at the Family Fun Tent and various areas around the site. Also free admission to the adult beverage tent. Food and beverages are not free.
The ever popular Polar Bear Dip contest will be held on Saturday, January 30th at 1 pm. Dippers should arrive early as the line to register starts forming a couple of hours before 1 pm. Be sure to wear a pair of shoes to jump in with, as bare feet will stick to the ice OUCH! Most wear an old pair of sneakers they don't mind getting wet. Have an unusual bathing costume? Bring it. The crazier the better. There is a fee to participate in the Polar Bear Dip but you get a sweatshirt.
And so much more. Contests and competitions abound see schedule.
The weather is cooperating with temps in the mid twenties to mid thirties over both weekends. Tents are heated to help you stay warm.

Hope to see you there.
Until tomorrow,
Ken
