Cheshire Ice Carver Sculpts way to Win
Cheshire ice artist places second at Lyman's Orchards Winterfest.

The 40th Annual Winterfest Celebration at Lyman's Orchards kept things cool with "Ice Wars," a two-day event with top ranking professional ice carvers. Bill Covitz of Cheshire took second place among a field of nationally ranked ice artists.
According to a statement from Lyman's, ice carvers tested their skills in three events: compulsory, free-style, and an intense speed challenge where carvers had only 30 minutes to carve a design from an idea they pulled from a hat.
Overall champion was Jeff Scarpa of Salisbury and third place was given to Matt Terzano of New Milford.
