Thank you to tremendous crowd that helped us shatter the World Record for the LONGEST ICE CREAM SUNDAE BAR – on Saturday, January 14, 2012 we set the new record at 352 ft, 11”. The ice cream sundaes provided by Spartan Stores/Rockford D&W Fresh Market didn’t last long!
As the New Year unfolds, picturesque downtown Rockford, Michigan will be transformed into a vision of ice, offering winter wonderland fun for folks of all ages and stages.
Just imagine, a gigantic ice cream sundae ice bar serving up tasty treats while competing for a world record … chain saw wielding ice carvers transforming huge blocks of ice into amazing sculptures … miniature ice golf … interactive ice games … a scavenger hunt throughout the town to locate dozens of sculptures … snow wall art … music and entertainment … hot cocoa and contests … voting for best of show … a throwback Ice Festival Ball dinner dance … bustling shops offering festival fare and fun … and THOUSANDS of guests discovering the City’s charm and enchantment.
Special thanks to Randy Finch and the talented team at Ice Sculptures Ltd for designing and creating the spectacular ice sculptures and interactive ice games. Randy’s team is internationally known for their amazing work, and they star on the Food Network’s Ice Brigade series.
The 3rd Annual Rockford Ice Festival promises to be BIGGER and BETTER than last year – which is not an easy act to follow. Last year’s festival drew nearly 10,000 and was featured on the Food Network’s Ice Brigade series.
JANUARY 13-15, 2012
Don’t forget, the sculptures stay put until Mother Nature does them in, so stop back often to enjoy this winter wonderland art.
