Winnipeg winters are long and cold, but fortunately, that’s never stopped us from having fun and making the most of it! Whether it’s making giant coloured ice towers or a snowy Santa and his reindeer, or creating and maintaining a river skating pond and toboggan run, folks all over the city provide inspiration on how to embrace life in a winter city. (Seriously, check out those links…the stories will really warm your soul!)
Soon it will be Glenelm’s turn to show off our winter spirit and creativity! We are excited to bring back a neighbourhood Snow Sculpture Challenge for a second year. Based on feedback from last year’s participants we’ve made some changes to the format – namely, more prizes for participation!
Judging and photography will take place on Saturday, February 2nd beginning at 2pm — so make sure you’ve built your sculpture and registered your address by then!
Visit www.glenelm.ca/snow to learn more and to sign up for free. You can also see this great article CBC did about last year’s challenge here.
Here’s a peek at some of our generous sponsors – big thanks to them! If you’re a local business who would like to support this event through a donation of prizes or financial support, we’d love to hear from you at glenelmcommunity [at] gmail.com.
