Hello!
It’s that time of year again! We are excited to announce the 9th Annual I.C.E. Fest (Sunny Zwilling Memorial Ice Carousel Extravaganza) on February 21st & 22nd, 2026, in Little Falls, MN, hosted by the Zwilling Family and the Pay It Forward Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
What is I.C.E. Fest?
I.C.E. Fest is a FREE, family-friendly winter event filled with outdoor activities for all ages, dedicated to helping children in need. It’s a chance to embrace the winter weather while supporting an important cause. Proceeds from the event benefit hungry children and families in need.
Last year’s event was an incredible success, raising $31,000 for two vital programs: Flyer Pride Pack, which provides weekend food backpacks for students, and Kare Kloset, a resource for children lacking necessities at home. We are deeply grateful for the support from last year’s participants, and we’re gearing up for another great event in 2026!
