Atlantic Parks and Recreation Department Director Bryant Rasmussen says “With plenty of snow to go around we have tried to put together a pop-up program getting people outside to enjoy the winter and making some art.  It is a great way to work on the 120 hour challenge and to see just what you can come up with.” Details about the 1st annual Snow Sculpture contest details were posted on Facebook Sunday and already they have had several submissions.
