BAY OF GREEN BAY, Wis. — A pair of ice floes in Door County keep U.S. Coast Guard and Department of Natural Resource personnel busy.
U.S. Coast Guard Station Sturgeon Bay says calls were received about two different floes off of Sherwood Point on Monday.
Nine people were stranded on one floe, while two people were on a separate ice floe. Five children were among those stranded.
The coast guard and DNR used airboats to bring everyone back to shore. All were reported in good health after being stranded for about an hour. However they only had sleds and no shanties for protection.
