If you enjoy the winter and all the activities of being out in the elements, do not miss the Ely Winter Festival! This is a 10 day event starting February 2, 2012 and ending on February 12, 2012. The focal point of this event is in Whiteside Park where the snow carving takes place. Professional carvers travel from far and wide to take part in this symposium. You will be amazed and impressed as they turn large block of snow into living forms for your pleasure! There is also an amateur showing of smaller blocks with upcoming professional carvers. Mix this in with food, art walks, dancing, and community events and you will have a great winter vacation in Ely.
