We want to thank ABC 13 On Your Side for helping spread the word about Michigan Iced Over, MiOFO’s ice fishing tournament in Gaylord.
The article highlights how this event was created to bring veterans, individuals with health challenges, families, friends, and outdoor lovers together for a fun day on the ice. With fishing, prizes, raffles, a silent auction, dinner, and community connection, Michigan Iced Over is about much more than catching fish — it is about getting people outdoors, building camaraderie, and creating a space where people feel supported and included.
At MiOFO, we know the winter months can be especially difficult for many veterans and individuals facing health challenges. Events like this help extend outdoor recreation into every season and give people a reason to get out of the house, connect with others, and enjoy Michigan’s great outdoors.
