Winterfest 2022
Mark You Calendars! Gun Lake Winterfest Is February 18, 2023
Dear Friends:
It’s that time of year again to think about snow, ice and BRR cold weather! Are you ready?!?! Gun Lake Winterfest 2023 will be here before we know it! Last year was a huge success thanks to your help. We had a few glitches to begin with, costs were up considerably from the previous year, but we still were able to donate over $4000 to our local charities! So here we are again asking for your help to make the 2023 Gun Lake Winterfest a success. This year’s main charity is Family Promise of Barry County. We are hoping that we will be able to contribute as much or more than last year. We are proud to partner up with such an outstanding Charity. Their Mission Statement is:
“Our mission is to help families experiencing homelessness and low-income families achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response.”
Their Vision: Creating a community in which every family has a home, a livelihood, and the chance to build a better future.

This Year’s Charity
Family Promise helps local communities coordinate their compassion to address the root causes of family homelessness. We address the issue holistically, providing prevention services before families reach crisis, shelter and case management when they become homeless, and stabilization programs once they have secured housing to ensure they remain independent. We tap existing local resources to empower families towards economic stability. Families come to us in crisis; we help them rebuild their lives with new skills and ongoing support.
Mission Statement:
Our mission is to help families experiencing homelessness and low income families achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response.
Vision:
Creating a community in which every family has a home, a livelihood, and the chance to build a better future.
We are excited and look forward to seeing everyone this year.
It is the goal of the GLBA to bring people out to the Gun Lake area to show off its untapped natural resources and beauty.
On behalf of the GLBA we want to thank all of the generous Sponsors, Volunteers, Vendors and Brewery’s that participated in making Winterfest such a hit. The event was a huge success and we owe it all to you! Thank you!
