SUMMARY:Houghton New Year's Eve Chook Drop
DESCRIPTION:Houghton Counts Down to New Year’s Eve Chook Drop on Waterfront Pier \nHOUGHTON\, Michigan (Dec. 12\, 2024) — The City of Houghton and Visit Keweenaw are counting down to New Year’s Eve – and everyone’s invited! Bundle up in Houghton to ring in 2025 with a Yooper-style Chook Drop on the Portage Canal. Feel the winter magic early or late – families with kids or those who don’t want to stay up can enjoy an early drop at 6:30-7p with appropriate music. Later\, Mr. Cesar and the Lucha Tones will play a set from 11:30p-midnight on the pier to lead the night crowd into 2025. Bring your friends and loved ones out for the short celebrations and enjoy reflecting on 2024’s accomplishments. \n\nHoughton first introduced a “Chook Drop” in 2023\, gathering a crowd on the Houghton Pier under the glow of street lights and a raised electric chook. As the night drew closer to Midnight\, the crowd joins to count down to the new year. \n\nThis year’s event will build on that energy\, splitting the night for different crowds. Warm up with a hot drink from nearby vendors and enjoy music and laughter in Houghton. This year: the LoHo (Lower Houghton) Social District is open. You can get to-go adult beverages from The Ambassador\, The Den and Keweenaw Brewing Company. Houghton’s downtown is full of great entertainment venues for NYE like the Bonfire and the Douglass Houghton Saloon. Shelden Avenue is also home to several hotels to choose from for folks looking to make the Chook Drop a NYE Destination.

SUMMARY:Ahmeek Ice Rink Grand Opening
DESCRIPTION:The Emil Aho Memorial Ice Rink in Ahmeek\, commonly known as the Ahmeek Ice Rink\, has been a community recreational gathering place for nearly 40 years. The rink will host a Grand Opening Ceremony to celebrate the installation of its new boards\, a project made possible by the successful fundraising campaign\, “Outdoor Recreation for All – Build the Boards Project.”  The event will include a ribbon-cutting \nceremony to officially unveil the newly revitalized rink. \n  \nThe event will take place on Friday\, February 2\, 2025\, at 2:00 PM at the Ahmeek Ice Rink on School Street in Ahmeek\, MI. \n  \nThis milestone celebration honors not only the completion of the board installation but also the collaborative spirit that brought the project to life. Through a community-driven fundraising campaign\, the community raised $100\,000 to replace the rink’s deteriorated boards\, ensuring a safe and sustainable space for skaters of all ages. \n  \nEvent Highlights:\n● Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony to officially mark the rink’s reopening\n● Free Hot Chocolate to keep attendees warm\n● Jim’s Pizza Available for Purchase\n● Open Skating to experience the new boards firsthand \n  \nAbout the Ahmeek Ice Rink and the Outdoor Recreation for All – Build the Boards Project Established in 1984\, the Emil Aho Memorial Ice Rink\, also known as the Ahmeek Ice Rink\, has long been a cherished community space for winter recreation. Maintained by dedicated volunteers\, the rink provides daily access for skating and hockey during winter and serves as a versatile venue for community events in the off-season. \n  \nLaunched in Fall 2023 as a special project through the Keweenaw Community Foundation\, the Outdoor Recreation for All – Build the Boards Project addressed the unsafe and deteriorating condition of the Ahmeek Ice Rink’s boards\, which had suffered years of wear due to harsh Keweenaw winters. Thanks to the generosity of over 100 donors\, including residents\, businesses\, and charitable foundations\, the rink has been revitalized\, ensuring its use for skating\, hockey\, and community activities for decades. This renovation reflects the community’s unwavering commitment to preserving and enhancing this vital recreational space.
