Winter Fun
Dropping temperatures don't mean a drop in the action! Michiganders are no strangers to fun in the snow, and Downtown Tecumseh has you covered for exciting winter events! From rentable snowshoes to festivals, the colder months of the year are still a great time to join us downtown for food or fun!
Snowshoeing
Fresh air, fun, and exercise; snowshoeing is a great way to explore the outdoors in the winter and it's as simple as walking! Take in the natural beauty of Michigan blanketed in snow and burn plenty of calories while you're at it. We have snowshoes designed to fit men, women, and children.
Snowshoes and poles are available to rent (weather dependent) on a daily basis for $10 or $20 for the weekend.
Call the Recreation Department for all the details at 517-423-5602.

Tecumseh's Annual Ice Sculpture Festival takes place across the downtown area. Artists carve out sculptures live, letting you see art in action. Who knows, you may even get to recommend a design to be made right in front of your eyes!
Typically featuring dozens and dozens of ice sculptures for you to enjoy, people visit from all over the area to see what new and exciting creations our local artists have to display.
