Ice Box Days Underway

International Falls celebration of winter is underway.

The annual Ice Box Days kicked off yesterday with the creation of a snowman family by local youngsters at Smoky Bear Park and will culminate with the annual Freeze Yer Gizzard Blizzard run Saturday morning.

Betsy Jensen of the Falls Chamber of Commerce says this year's event will get some national attention.

"We actually have CBS Sunday morning show coming here this year," says Jenson. "They've flying in Friday night and following us around all day and taking footage of all the events. Then they'll be live from here Sunday morning for the CBS Sunday Morning Show."

This year marks the event's 30-year.
