When will the Ice be out?
This is one of the most popular questions we receive in the weeks leading up to opening weekend. It's also the only question we can't answer as we never know what Mother Nature has in store for us each season. But we do have the History of Ice Out going back to the 1950s that can give you some idea. If only that crystal ball would work!
