Waterfront Fundraiser

Downtown Algonac is looking a little more festive this winter. Dozens of decorated snowmen now line the St. Clair River as part of Algonac’s first Snowman Decoration Contest, drawing families downtown through February 28th. The 20 snowmen, built and decorated by local groups and businesses, feature everything from classic winter looks to humorous. The $1,800 raised from the displays is helping buy new chairs for the Algonac Community Center. City leaders say the strong turnout may make this snowy showcase a new winter tradition.
