Watch as a Festive Holiday Train is Carved from Ice Dec. 20-21


Live Ice Carving in Sibley Park Friday, December 20 and Saturday, December 21


Final weekend to visit Santa!


Ice Carving has become a tradition at Kiwanis Holiday Lights and this weekend skilled ice carvers Joe Christensen and Adam Scholljegerdes of Sakatah Carvers will create a festive holiday train from 24 solid blocks of crystal-clear ice weighing 300 lbs each (Depiction attached).

Because of the sculpture’s new location this year along the driving loop, carving will be visible to those who choose to drive or walk said Kiwanis Holiday Lights President Scott Wojcik.


Sculpting will start at 4 p.m. on Friday Afternoon near the farm area in Mankato’s Sibley Park and will be completed Saturday evening. Holes will then be drilled in the sculpture and LED lights will be inserted so that it will glow brightly with colorful lights. The Holiday Train will remain as long as weather permits.


In addition, this is the final weekend to visit Santa. He’ll greet children in his house, located in the farm area, 5-9 pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night.


Kiwanis Holiday Lights is open each night through December 31, Sunday-Thursday, 5-9 p.m. and Friday-Saturday 5-10 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Additional information can be found at www.kiwanisholidaylights.com
