The Festival of Ice is on Winter 8th and starts at 9 AM near Marnie's Ranch. When you get there, ice sculptures and igloos will be set up across the area. There is a frozen lake in the middle of the fields with Mayor Lewis standing in the center. Talking to him a few times will start the Ice Fishing Contest. You will verse Pam, Willy, and Elliott. If you catch at least 5 fish you will win the event. The first year you win the prizes are 2 tackles, bait, and a sailor hat. If you win more than once (in a different year) the prize is 2000g.
