The fifth annual Winter Fest will take place in downtown Oakland Feb. 17-19. Bill Sandusky and his ice carving company, Frozen Assets, will arrive in town next week to begin the artistic work, that of creating a wide array of ice sculptures to be displayed throughout town, and lit at night for as long as they remain frozen. A great number of activities and events are slated for Saturday, Feb. 18, downtown, such as wine tasting, snowman building, s'mores making, and, if the weather allows, snowmobile races. More activities will take place Sunday, which will end with Sandusky's carving of his own tribute to the festival. There is a "toddler photo" contest that will begin next week at Marvin's (see separate story) as well, with the winners to be announced Saturday. Sandusky and his staff will carve ice for audiences to watch. There will be ice-bowling and sliding, and kids can sit on a giant throne of ice. For a complete schedule of events, persons may go to www.oaklandwinterfest.com. There will be "something for everyone" at this celebration of winter. Photo (at last year's event) by John McEwen.
