Head North to Zehnder’s Snowfest 2010!!

I want to invite you all to head up I75 to Zehnder’s Snowfest this weekend. They’ve already started, but there’s still time to catch the amazing snow and ice sculptures and all the other fun things going on. They have an apple pie contest, kid’s area, warming tent and much more. Check out their web site before you go. You can download a schedule of events so you can plan your trip for the thing you most want to see. My kids and I have gone over there every year and we love it. It’s new every year!! Our local news even did a newscast from a “Snowdesk”.

This is the blurb from the Zehnder’s Snowfest web site.
Zehnder’s Snowfest has been host to one of the top snow sculpting events in North America for the past 19 years. Visitors have enjoyed larger-than-life snow sculptures and beautifully detailed ice carvings each year.

Zehnder’s Snowfest 2010 will again dazzle and excite you with snow and ice sculptures created by professional ice and snow carvers from around the world.

Zehnder’s Snowfest is also host to the National Collegiate Ice Carving Championship and the High School Snow Sculpting Competition.
In addition, Zehnder’s Snowfest will have entertainment for the entire family in the warming tent, a fireworks display, petting zoo and children’s activities. Plan now to attend Zehnder’s Snowfest 2010!

Be warned, DRESS WARM!! There’s a lot of walking around, so make sure you wear comfy boots!

If you go, come back and share your thoughts here. Would love to hear what you think of Snowfest!

ICE (In Case of Emergency)

• You’re in a car accident rendered unconscious?
• You’re at the mall or work and become incapacitated?

This happened to me when I was in high school. I was on my way home from the library and I got in a car accident. I was thrown from my vehicle and rendered unconscious. Luckily I was with two friends that only suffered minor scratches. Had I been alone…

Put “ICE” in your cell phone and make it easier for emergency personnel to contact loved ones in case of an emergency.

Make a new entry with the word ICE next to the name you want called in emergency situations.

Make sure the person knows your medical history.

For more than one contact name, ICE 1-Mom, ICE 2-Ted, ICE 3-Adam, ect.
