Hello friends.
Today is the last day (and night) of the 23rd annual Snowking's Winter Festival. And what a month itSA国际影视传媒檚 been eh?
I canSA国际影视传媒檛 count how many hugs and high fives ISA国际影视传媒檝e received from folks under four feet tall.
But ISA国际影视传媒檝e also been thanked by parents and grandparents, every one of them with big smiles.
Truthfully, ISA国际影视传媒檝e felt the love.
Winter is almost over and we celebrated the coming of spring at the Long John Jamboree. But the Snow Castle is all about Winter. You may remember the lyrics to that great song, SA国际影视传媒淚 get so happy, happy, happy when the weather gets cold-snappy, I get a wondrous thrill from a frosty winter chill.SA国际影视传媒
Cold temperatures in November and December give us that wonderful ice and snow, our building materials. While some might think that we build the castle as a venue for SnowkingSA国际影视传媒檚 Winter Festival in March, many on our crew see the festival as necessary only to finance the build in January and February. Working outside every day for those two months is the best way to fully appreciate winter! Okay, warmer days are pleasant in their way, but sun is the castleSA国际影视传媒檚 enemy turning crisp snow into mushy snow, and making clear sparkling ice turn cloudy. Fortunately we got some cold temperatures again to get us through the last few weeks!
Loving the cold as we do, global warming is an enemy. ISA国际影视传媒檇 like to take a moment to brag up the fact that by using compostable cups, lids, bowls, spoons, and napkins at our Snack Shack and recycling as much as we can, we were able to limit the amount of trash that the festival generated to less than one small dumpster.
Most of that garbage was stuff that visitors brought in with them. Got to love that reusable thermos mug!
So hereSA国际影视传媒檚 a big thank you to all of our team, sponsors and citizenSA国际影视传媒檚 of the SnowkingSA国际影视传媒檚 realm.
Spring is on the way, and we know weSA国际影视传媒檒l enjoy the coming warmer interlude. But never fear, next winter will be here before we know it!
See you next year,
Love, Snowking.
