19th Annual Lake Lucerne
Ice-In Contest

Summer 2026 started off cool and wet,

eventually became warm and dry, and ended in a few notable anniversaries. The first Web server in the US came online in December 1991. Ten years later, what would eventually become knottlane was inflicted on an unsuspecting public. Coincidentally, the subject of that first summary page was Ice-In for 2001. The Ice-In contest would come a few years later after heavy lobbying for such a contest by aLf. To commemorate a quarter of a century of Lake Lucerne related content, this year’s Ice-In contest includes silver. The first place winner of the contest will, in addition to the traditional $50.00 prize, win a 1oz silver coin. A second 1oz coin will be given to a randomly selected entry with the drawing being a short time after Ice-In. So even if you lose, you could win! Now is the time to focus your knowledge, skill, and luck on Lucerne’s coming Ice-In. Then use that insight and enter the 19th Annual Knottlane Ice-In Contest.

Pick ice-in, win admiration, money.

The rules again, are simple. The first person to pick Wisconsin's Lake Lucerne 2026 ice-in date here wins $50.00 and a silver coin. The second person to select that date wins $25.00, the third wins $15.00, and the fourth wins $10.00. Any picks after fourth place will win our thanks for playing. All participants will be entered in the silver coin drawing after Ice-In. One entry per person. About every 24 hours, we'll put pending entries into the selected dates area after they're purged of dups and bots. Until then, pending dates will be listed in the "Pending Dates" Column. The decision of the judges (The College of Loons, Lake Lucerne's oldest and most mysterious semi-secret society) is final. This offer is not valid in any state or country where it is not legal. No purchase necessary. Any malfunction (software, firmware, hardware, Loon(s)) voids all plays. Good Luck!
