Celebrating its 15th year the Fire and Ice Festival in Somerset, PA will offer up its 48 creative ice sculptures throughout up town Somerset and the Georgian Place. Mastro Gourmet Quality Ice from Pittsburgh will once again be delighting the crowds with their one of a kind pieces! This is a three day weekend with the Martin Luther King, Jr Holiday on Monday. Both Seven Springs and Hidden Valley are expecting awesome crowds!
Fireworks are set to begin tonight at 6 p.m. You may have caught, Little Big Shots, the local company responsible for tonight’s display on Dirty Jobs seen on the Discovery Channel. They are sure to delight everyone! New this year is the karaoke contest.
We always enjoy Crazy Alice’s Catering before checking out the carvings! They serve breakfast and lunch which you can enjoy dinning in or taking out (101 West Main St, Glades Court Mall, Somerset).
