Ice Festival

Kirtland

Shake the winter blues that fall upon Ohioans every January. The festival begins with an ice carving demonstration, with the night ending in a battle between fire and ice. Saturday, some of the best ice carvers from around the country take part in a speed carving competition, as well as a wood carver versus ice carver competition. A full-sized ice chair and ice slide decorate the farmpark. After taking photographs on the chilly structure, warm up with hot cocoa and s’mores. (Photo: Earl Linaburg)
