The goat is back on Sister Bay, and this year he’s riding a brand-new boat. Sister Bay’s annual beloved spring tradition invites you to guess the exact date and time the ice will break and the goat finally sets sail.

You can submit your guesses at any participating Sister Bay business and may enter multiple times to increase your chances of winning. When the Goat on a Boat floats, the clock stops, and prizes are awarded to the closest guesses at each business.

Make sure to keep an eye on the bay as temperatures warm this week and get your guesses in before the ice melts. The contest is not only a fun community event but also a way to support local businesses. Winners will be contacted after the official float time is confirmed.

For a list of participating businesses or for more information, please visit the Village of Sister Bay’s website.
