Summer is easy to love around here, but January? That takes a little extra spirit. While we might not have the usual snowstorm, that won’t stop the fun! Embracing the winter chill and making the most of the season is what Schnee Days is all about. Grab your winter gear, lace up your running shoes, and gather your friends and family for a weekend of snowy fun. Here’s your guide to this year’s Schnee Days events, packed with winter adventures from January 24-26, 2025!
Start your weekend with a warm welcome at Sip’n’Schnee, a cozy winter wine tasting at Vintage Elkhart Lake. From there, swing by Siebkens Resort’s Hard Left Lounge for a mix of creative cocktails and tasty bites. Want to keep the good vibes going? Enjoy live music by Brent Bel at The Osthoff Resort’s Elk Room or head over to The Shore Club for a fun performance by the Dave Steffen Band. It’s the perfect way to set the tone for your weekend.
On Saturday, lace up your sneakers for the annual SchneeLauf Fun Run/Walk, then get outdoors with activities like snowshoeing, sledding, and ice skating (snow or no snow!). For some friendly competition, take part in the Disc Golf Challenge at Road America. Warm up with the kiddos by crafting some cozy memories at the Elkhart Lake Library. Plus, don’t miss the Schnee Days Spirits Stroll, where you can sip on seasonal cocktails as you explore the village.
Wrap up your weekend on Sunday with family-friendly fun, starting with Children’s Games and the Ice Cube Hunt at The Shore Club. Then, warm up at Siebkens Resort with the annual Chili Cook-Off, where you can sample the best chili in the area, paired with grilled cheese and brats. It’s the perfect ending to a weekend filled with winter adventures.
