For nearly 120 years the Winter Sports Park has been a landmark community space for families to enjoy a northern Michigan winter.
30 years ago, a collaboration with the City of Petoskey and the Rotary Club of Petoskey raised the funds for building the lodge at the Winter Sports Park.
Even then, there was a vision for the next steps in creating an all-season space that could be a destination for generations to come. Now the vision will become a reality. With the assistance of the Rotary Club of Petoskey, generous donors, state grants and private contributions, the City of Petoskey, along with the Friends of the Winter Sports Park are working hard to fund this generational project!
