The Michigan Snowmobile Festival is headed to Gaylord Friday and Saturday.

This free fun run will take you through great terrain in Northern Michigan. Each participant registers either online or in person and receives a map full of highlighted stops. Bring the slips you receive at registration to each stop to be entered to win cash drawings.

Participants can also create their own route, starting when they’d like, or join the guided ride beginning on Saturday at 10:30am at the Gaylord Tourism Bureau office.

And don’t miss the afterparty at the Eagles Hall for food, a cash bar, and live music.
