Labor Day weekend in the San Bernardino Mountains is filled with music and water-play fun at Big Bear Lakefest.
Ski Beach at Big Bear Lake is home to water events, live music performances, food vendors, and more. Registration opens Sunday, Sept. 1, at 5:30 a.m. and the water racing events get underway at 6:30 a.m. Events and activities take place throughout the day and wrap at 8 p.m.
Saturday morning, an open water swim race was held, and according to bigbear.com, it was the the first-ever held on the lake. The one-mile race started at Swim Beach, went out to Eagle Point and back to Ski Beach Park, where the weekend’s festivities were taking place.
Relay races on a kayak, a paddleboard, or other paddle boat were also part of the action both weekend days, along with live music.
