Reminder of activities at the School District of Shell Lake tomorrow. No school in session tomorrow.
There is a pressure ridge that has formed on Shell Lake East of the main boat landing near Hwy 63, approximately 150 yards out from the landing, it starts near Scouts Island and continues to angle north past the beach area.
