Harrier mascot gets ice treatment

January 11, 2005

Miami Hamilton's mascot, the Harrier, received a special ice treatment as part of an exclusive IceFest media preview hosted Jan. 11 at the campus.

In conjunction with Hamilton’s City of Sculpture, Miami Hamilton kicked off IceFest 2006 with a news conference inside The Conservatory. Area news teams learned of upcoming events for IceFest 2006, which is scheduled for the weekend of January 20 in downtown Hamilton.

While plants in The Conservatory enjoyed balmy temperatures, Olympic ice carver Jeff Stahl of Artic Diamond, Inc., and his partner, Matt Williams, preferred the colder temperatures outside as they created sculptures of the Harrier and the Miami Hamilton logo.

Stahl and Williams will be competing in the Ice Carving Competition during the festival weekend.

Artic Diamond is a premier ice sculpting company in Ohio responsible for the ice sculptures on display during IceFest. For more information on IceFest 2006, log on to www.cityofsculpture.org.
