So it's a done deal. Another Winter Blast is on the horizon here in Detroit!! I volunteer every year but this year I haven't heard a peep out of anyone about sign ups and the likes. There is nada on the website either. Buehler? Buehler?:confused:

Do you know when it is?
Feb. 12-14. http://www.winterblast.com/index.html
I have already booked a hotel room downtown for Saturday. The Winterblast is fun, I went to one before and am looking forward to this next one.
If you're planning to attend, this year there will be a nominal entry fee, to benefit Matrix Human Services. The entry fee is any of the following:
Further information about Matrix at www.matrixhumanservices.org/
- a new or gently used article of clothing
- a canned food item
- a book
- $1 [[will be donated directly to Matrix Human Services)
I didn't know this. I parked in the Compuware garage and walked through the Compuware Building. When we exited there was no one around to collect anything. Other than that the Blast was fun. I had my nephew and his friend and they enjoyed the kids snow hill and they rode the kiddie roller coaster. The warming tent was super warm. The skating rink was packed. It looks like the Blast was successful.Quote:
