A LOOK BACK: Folks battle it out playing winter games at the 1982 East Shore Deepfreeze
A look back...people young and old seemed to have a blast at the first annual East Shore Deepfreeze Jamboree in 1982, which was hosted by the East Shore Business Association. Billed as a "family-oriented event" they featured several activities, including barstool races, a snowball throwing competition, inner tube races, and ski races. This included "ski joring," which was said to involve a series of competitions including a modest jump in which the contestants were towed on their skis by a horse.
