Bear’ly Open XVII – Golf on Ice

The annual BEAR’ly Open Golf on Ice Event takes place the first weekend in February each year at Ramsey County Beach on beautiful White Bear Lake in Minnesota.

The fun kicks off with the Community Dance on Friday, February 2, 2024 and is hosted at the White Bear Country Inn. The evening begins with a social hour of fun games and activities, free hors d’oeuvres, and a cash bar featuring our signature “Bearlytini” cocktail. Then dance the night away to live music by a local band. Tickets are $10 online or at the door.

Then join us on Saturday, February 3 on the frozen shores of White Bear Lake for a round of golf benefitting the White Bear Area Food Shelf! Enjoy two custom-designed, 9-hole courses with your group of friends. Bring your own creative “golf club”, a hockey stick, broom, tennis racket, or anything that will hit a tennis ball. Come dressed up for the best costume contest and spend time in the Tent City for beverages and treats from local businesses and organizations. Tickets are $35 each and you may order up to 20 tickets at a time. Please select your tee time ticket for either 11:30 am or 1:00 pm.

Can’t join us in person? The Online Auction runs January 31-February 3, 2024. You can still help by participating in our silent auction where you will find many gifts and experiences donated by local businesses and community members.

Online registration for the Community Dance and Golf on Ice is now open at www.bearlyopen.org. We are also seeking sponsorships and auction donations for this great fundraiser benefiting the White Bear Area Food Shelf. Please share this information with your family, friends, and colleagues, and help us raise funds to eradicate food insecurity in our community!

Net proceeds from the tournament will go to the White Bear Area Food Shelf; where the need has never been greater! Learn more at www.bearlyopen.org.
