Did you see all of the 21 lovely Ice Sculptures this past weekend as part of the Salem’s So Sweet festival?

If you missed some look below to see all 21! Thank you to the downtown businesses who participated in this year’s Salem’s So Sweet Festival whether sponsoring an ice sculpture, donating samples for the Wine and Chocolate event, entering the window contest or listing a promotion or event for the festival. Thank you to everyone who came downtown to make this a successful event and all the volunteers who made it possible. Special thanks to Salem Trolley who donated their services Saturday and Sunday offering free shuttle rides around town.

Starting Saturday, February 5 at noon downtown Salem will be filled with 21 beautiful ice sculptures. The ice sculptures are outdoors and free to view. Stop in to warm up at downtown businesses, many of whom are offering free chocolate samples and discounted shopping. Go to the National Park Service Visitor Center at the corner of New Liberty and Essex Street to learn about the history of drinking chocolate. Stop by Deadhorse Beach on Feb. 6 at 11 a.m. to watch the Polar Plunge fundraiser. These are just a few of the fun opportunities in Salem this weekend.
