Gurnee gears up for annual Frosty Fest

GURNEE – Viking Park will turn into a winter wonderland from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Jan. 4 for Frosty Fest.

The free community event is a great way to embrace the cold. Bundle up and enjoy outdoor sleigh rides, games, crafts, no ice “ice skating” and more. Don’t forget to wear hats, gloves, scarfs, boots and extra layers to stay warm.

Warm up with a hot cocoa bar in the Dance Hall followed by s’mores by the fire.

Frosty Fest is held outdoors so please be sure to dress for the weather. The Viking Park Dance Hall will be open for guests to warm up indoors.

Special guests include sponsor Honey Orthodontics.

Parking will be available by Viking Park’s baseball fields and across the street at Viking Middle School.

Should there be a threat of rain or inclement snow, check the Gurnee Park District’s rainout line for updates. The Gurnee Park District will make an announcement by 8 a.m. Jan. 4.
