Winter Carnival may be on thin ice

LAKE GEORGE -- The annual Lake George Winter Carnival may have something a little different this year. Events elsewhere.

This unusually mild winter means safe ice has not yet formed on the ice, so organizers of the month-long festival are working on alternate site plans for some events.

The motorcycle and ATV races on the ice are major draws of the Winter Carnival, which runs every Saturday and Sunday in February. If the ice isn't safe, the races may be moved to another frozen body of water  such as Echo Lake in nearby Warrensburg.

All events at Shepard Park in the village still are scheduled as planned. You can see the full schedule of events as it stands now by going here.
