Ever Hear of Snow Sculpting? January 29, 2016

The 2016 Snow Sculpting Event has been CANCELLED.

What FUN!  

The White Mountains are known for many things and snow is one of them!  Prepare yourself for a great time at the 16th Annual Jackson Invitational Snow Sculpting Competition!

January 29, 2016 at noon marks the start for the more than a dozen teams from all over the Northeast to sculpt their masterpieces to be judged starting at noon on Sunday, January 31st!

The teams start with cylinder of compacted snow that is 8 feet high by 4 feet round and create incredible works of art that are frozen in time (or at least for a week if the weather cooperates!).  

This is a truly family oriented event and the setting couldn't be more quintessential New England village!  You are welcome to watch the progression of these works of art all weekend but we would highly recommend viewing them after dark once they are completed.

The sculptures take on a whole new look when lit up at night and provide great photo ops for family photos!

Come on down to Jackson Village Park starting at noon on January 29, 2016.  This family friendly even is free and open to anyone!  Don't forget your cameras too!

The town of Jackson has been a favorite spot with visitors for 200 years.  Surrounded by the White Mountain National Forest and is as picturesque as it is friendly!

To add to your photo-op spots the town has an historic covered bridge, white steeple church, mountains and rolling farmland.  

​Jackson also has a smattering of visitor friendly businesses including; restaurants, attractions, rivers, horseback riding, alpine and cross country skiing and a beautiful golf course.   

As any good family event should, there will be a fire pit for roasting of marshmallows, a torch light parade created by our Jackson Ski Touring Foundation Members, scavenger hunt, and more planned throughout the event!
