Ice-Out Date Guessing Contest


About Ice-Out 2003

Who will become the 2003 holder of the coveted and legendary* Pawtuckaway Ice-Out Trophy? (*note, see below)

Register your guess now and stay tuned to find out what date the Official Pawtuckaway Ice-Out Jury declares to be Ice-Out 2003. (Ice-out is defined as when the surface of the lake is 90% ice-free, as measured by the Pawtuckaway Ice-Out Jury.)

All Guesses must be registered by March 21.

This year's winner will

  • become the holder-of-record of the trophy,
  • receive a swell prize from from our sponsor Mountain Road Trading Post
  • and most important, will have bragging-rights for the entire year.

Prize: $10 Gift Certificate, and a free kayak rental from Mountain Road Trading Post.

The winner will be celebrated at a party... err... ceremony to be held on a Saturday afternoon soon after Ice-Out at a location to be announced (is YOUR front yard available?)

* Note: Alright, so this is actually the first year we've ever done this, but we're pretending that it is part of a long tradition. One day that will be true. You'll see.
