Champlain Marina Ice Out Contest 2023

Update: 3/31/23 1pm

As of 9:22am today, the jackstand for the 2023 Ice Out Contest has fallen through the ice! Congratulations to Andrew Siegriest for his winning guess of 3/31/2023 15:45. Andrew will be receiving a $250 gift card.

This being the first year of the contest things did not go quite as planned, and as seen on the webcam there is still quite a bit of ice in the marina. As a result, we will be extending the contest! A runner-up prize of a $100 gift card will be awarded to the guess closest to the time that the orange buoy is freely floating in the channel. Stay tuned for the results!

In this contest, individuals will place guesses of when a jackstand will fall through the ice in the Champlain Marina channel. The guess with the closest date, hour, and minute that does not go beyond the actual time will be declared the winner. All entries must be received by 11:59pm on February 28th. The time of the fall will be determined by the timestamp on the webcam.
