So Much to Do This Weekend

31st Annual University of Okoboji Winter Games


January 28th – 30th, 2011
 
"It all started with a couple local guys and the organization of small broomball tournament. 30 years later, with the support of hundreds of community members, the small broomball tournament in 1981 has turned into an annual winter festival drawing thousands of people from throughout the Mid-West. The University of Okoboji Winter Games is now a weekend full of indoor and outdoor events for all ages. A special thank goes out to The Iowa Great Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce, local businesses, and the hard-working volunteers that have worked so hard to make this event a success!"
