Dates For 2012 Winter Fest Are Announced

Jan. 26, 2012

The fifth annual Oakland Winter Fest celebration will be held Feb. 17 to 19, as announced this week. Sponsors are currently being sought to help fund the ice sculptures that will be carved on site throughout the town for the weekend celebration of winter.

Volunteers are also needed to help with the events of the weekend, which will include live ice sculpting by professional ice artist Bill Sandusky, a progressive dinner on Friday, Feb. 17, and ice games on Saturday such as ice bowling and a snowman building contest. If the weather is right, a snowmobile race will also take place.

Jim Johnson is heading up the event, assisted by several individuals, including Ray Miller, who will provide horse-drawn sleigh rides and who assists in planning the progressive dinner, the traditional kick-off event. Participants will depart from the town's new Transportation Museum for the first course of the meal, and have each course at a different locale.

Lillian Steele is organizing vendors for the event, and Regina Gearhart is serving as the event treasurer. Flyers are being distributed with detailed information, and more information will be published as the event nears. There will be a bonfire, a Snowflake Toddler contest, and many other events.

To offer assistance or to sponsor a sculpture, persons are asked to contact Johnson at 301-334-3352 or 301-616-4008.
