Fairmont Lakes Foundation Inc. is holding their Annual Ice Fishing Tournament on January 25, 2025. This event will be limited to the first 150 registered anglers. Everyone will have to check-in in the morning of the tournament at the shelter house at Gomsrud Park, between the hours of 7am and 8:45am. We will be launching from the shelter house at Gomsrud Park at 9am SHARP! In the event of a major blizzard, we have set a backup date for February 1, 2025.

Fisherman should arrive at Gomsrud Park early and be ready for the 9am start. We will be handing out a colored ribbon before takeoff, please tie these to the exterior of your ice house to let us know who is fishing in the tournament.
