FORT WAINWRIGHT, Alaska - Visiting Ice Alaska should be on every military family's "must do" list. It is an experience unique to Alaska and fun for all ages. Ice Alaska is one of the largest ice art competition and exhibitions and features work by both local and world-class artists.
Ice Alaska features a kids' park made entirely of ice. There are slides and rides for all ages, amazing mazes, and "twirlies," small bowls made of ice which children can sit in and be spun around. The park also has life-size sculptures of animals and toys to touch and climb on. There is even an ice rink to skate on and a place to borrow skates. There are also sculptures on display paying tribute to the military community.
Sunday is MAC Federal Credit Union Military Day at Ice Alaska and is a great time to visit the park. Soldiers and military families can get a $5 discount on the price of admission simply by showing their military identification cards.
Ice Alaska is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and is open until March 27. For more information
