Five things not to miss this weekend
No need to make that frantic bread and milk run, because it looks like that Mid-Atlantic storm is going to just miss us this weekend, giving us a sunny Friday-Sunday for the outdoor events like the Glacier Ice Bar and Rangeley’s Snodeo. We’ve got some quirky indoor entertainment happening as well. Check it out!
Last weekend for the Ice Bar
Friday, Jan. 22 & Saturday, Jan. 23—Rockport
If you didn’t want to brave the mob scene the first weekend, this is the more chill (yeah, I said it) weekend to experience the pirate-themed Glacier Ice Bar at the Samoset Resort. 20,000 pounds of crystal-clear glacier ice have been transformed into a fantasy land. Cold luge drinks in musket ice shot glasses and hot pit fires with faux polar bear coverings are some of its best features. Plus, they have an ice rink outside and you can bring your own skates. If you don’t go this weekend, next weekend is your last chance before they dismantle it. Starts at 5 p.m.; no charge to get in. See our gallery from last weekend.
