“Those slabs were wonderful,” she said. “I especially like et.”

The fun continues

Yingling made time to visit Sarah Romich on Saturday morning, another seller at the event representing Matt-Hat Jerky.

They both enjoyed the opportunity to sell their products while sharing the energy and fun.

The women said that the weather, clear and cold, set the perfect background for the event.

Philip Baum, owner and founder of Kinetic Kreations, made a human hamster wheel that fed the creation of snow cones.

Baum said he designed the worker mechanism that young people did not exercise enough.

Both the children and the adults climb the steering wheel, looking forward to a snow cone in their favorite aroma as a reward for their efforts.

Many stopped to take a selfie or asked a family member to take a picture.

“This makes them move,” Baum said. “And I can also learn a little about its science.”

The emotion continues

Many skiers, who usually go on the slopes on the weekend, said they enjoyed the additional activities that the festival has provided and the opportunity to make a little shopping for unique items.

Some stopped for a specialized coffee or hot chocolate before hitting the slopes.

Saturday’s activities continued with a pond degreasing competition, which brought participants in a variety of costumes to slip on frozen waters and is described as a “favorite of fans”.

The event ended with several troops on Saturday, bringing music to the mountain and offering a fun atmosphere to end this year’s holiday.
