Grilling Season Starts at the Beach Win Care-free Summer Lawn Service

As signs of spring sneak up, like Groundhog's Day and daylight savings, we need to be reminded of the summer traditions like grilling and a swim in Lake Michigan.

This past Sunday, the Chicago Polar Plunge iced down many locals and celebrities with a dip into Lake Michigan raising $1.5 million for Special Olympics. A spring tradition for many, this year's plunge served up a Bear on the beach and a baby daddy, Dax Shepard. But this bear had more to offer than a towel.

Former Bears legend, Brian Urlacher, was there in chef gear, meeting, greeting and grilling up the first Johnsonville brats of the season. The cold weather is no excuse to not enjoy the a good brat! Chef- Brian shook hands and served up hundreds of free brats to attendees and fans. As good Chicagoans know only mustard is the preferred topping on their brats.

The festivities were contagious. Smiles, shivers and on-lookers couldn't help but be drawn into the excitement. Jenna Mueller, attendee, bubbled, "This was so much fun to watch, I am signing up for next year!"

Definitely the grills smoking and fanfare of the plunge warmed up the beach reminding us that summer is on its way. Because grilling is a better past time than mowing the lawn, enter to win a care-free summer lawn from Johnsonville Brats.

Enter online or with social media for a chance to win a year of free lawn service or snow removal. With the way Chicago is warming up, the lawn service sounds like a great option!
