In January, 12 teams from around the world traveled to Stillwater, Minnesota to compete in the World Snow Sculpting Championship for awards and prize money. This years teams are from Canada, Denmark, Taiwan, Mexico, India, Mongolia, Spain, Finland, Peru, Malta, Great Britain, and the USA. Spectators are invited to watch the progress on the snow sculptures in Lowell Park and visit with the teams. In addition to a judged event and ceremonies, the week long celebration also includes social events and activities fun for the whole family. Our kids look forward to seeing the creative snow sculptures every winter. This year I especially loved seeing the completed sculptures at night with colorful lights!
The sculptures are expected to stay up for a couple of week following the event, weather dependent. There is NO FEE to view the snow sculptures and Lowell Park is open to the public and dogs on leash.
