MILAN — Get ready for some fun in the snow this weekend with the Nansen Winter Carnival which takes place Saturday and Sunday at the site of the historic Big Nansen Ski Jump off Route 16.
The popular art sled rally will kick off the festival on Saturday with the decorated sleds flying down the ski jump hill to the delight of the sledders and crowd. On Sunday more than 40 jumpers are expected to soar off the 39-meter Little Nansen Jump for the Eastern Ski Competition.
