Veterans Ice Fishing Event 2024
The Highground will host a day of ice fishing on Saturday, February 3, 2024.
The Highground is excited to announce registration is open for one-day Ice Fishing Event on Lake Arbutus on Saturday, February 3! This event is open to all male and female Veterans and Veterans will be treated to great food during the day.
The ice fishing day is offered with the generous hosting and fishing guide assistance of Paul Borsheim, Mike Prindle, Eugene Bertrand and Josh Olson. Ice fishing equipment and guidance in comfortable ice fishing shacks will be available for registered Veterans who do not have experience and/or their own equipment. Veterans who have experience ice fishing and/or their own equipment can also register for this fun event. Note: All Veteran attendees are responsible for getting their own valid Wisconsin fishing license and having it with them while they are ice fishing. Veterans can get their fishing licenses online at gowild.wi.gov.
This is a unique Central Wisconsin opportunity to spend a day or a three-day weekend in the company of fellow Veterans, make new friendships and enjoy what The Highground and surrounding area has to offer.
Registration is required by January 19, 2024. Due to limited space, a $30 registration fee is required but will be fully refunded to the Veteran when they arrive. For more information and to reserve a spot at either event, Veterans are invited to contact Theresa by email to museum@thehighground.us or by calling 715-743-4224.
The Highground thanks the Lake Arbutus Association for their help in connecting The Highground to the generous ice fishing guides mentioned above. The Highground Veterans Ice Fishing Day is sponsored by a grant from the WDVA, Borton Construction, Patricia and Michael Tatro, Linda Czaplinski, The Roper Trust, The National Society of Dames of the Court of Honor, Michele Benson, Beth Murray and Karen Kensel.
