Ice Fest Recap!





The Plymouth Ice Festival took place last weekend, and Mother Nature did not cooperate!








     The Plymouth Ice Festival took place last weekend, and the experience was different depending on which day that you attended.  The Festival officially kicked off on Friday, but the weather was uncooperative from the get go.  There was rain, and temperatures reaching 40 degrees on Friday, followed by the same on Saturday.  By Sunday afternoon, the show seemed like it was already winding down, despite the large crowds that came to see the ice sculptures.  The temperature was 37 degrees on Sunday, but with the wind chill it was 29 degrees.  There were no heaters inside the warming tent, and there were long lines of people wrapped around Kellogg Park, making it almost impossible to see the art work without tripping over the person in front of you.  There was also a lot of unfinished art work throughout the park, and it appeared that many of the artists had completely given up on creating their ice sculptures.  There was a wood carver on sight, and his live carving was definitely a highlight of this years event.

The Plymouth Ice Festival is going on this weekend in downtown Plymouth!








     The Plymouth Ice Festival is currently underway in downtown Plymouth, and the spring like temperatures shouldn't interfere with the competitions, and events scheduled for this weekend.  It is currently 40 degrees, and raining, but the ice sculptures are surviving the weather, and the rain is adding a glistening effect to the artwork that has taken over Kellogg Park.  This is the 32nd year that the Ice Festival has come to Plymouth, and this years list of activities offers something for everyone.
