The 2007 Twin Cities Snow Sculpting Champion

Ladies and gentlemen, I present Allison, missing her two front teeth and one additional tooth on the bottom jaw line. This is her 1st place entry in the Twin Cities Snow Sculpting contest held each year here in the Twin Cities. In the contests 17th year, her Snow Cat was the winning entry in the 6 to 8 year old division. I believe there was about 48 entries this year in her division alone and around 350 entries total in all age categories.

This years contest was noted for only having about a half inch of snow on the ground and it really was tough to make a tall snowman with such little snow to work with so each contestant had to limit the size of their creation to no greater than 18 inches high.

Cute kitty! Allison, you did an awesome job with what little "tools" you had to work with. My kids like to make snow men and women and dress them in summer clothes ?? :)
