Genisys Sponsors College Ice Carving Competition

Published 2/14/2013

 

event photoAuburn Hills, MI, February 14, 2013 – Genisys Credit Union recently sponsored the College Ice Carving Competition, which took place at the 31st annual Plymouth Ice Festival held in Kellogg Park. An individual competition took place on January 19th and a team competition on January 20th.
The ice festival partnered with many local colleges and universities this year, including: Henry Ford Community College, Washtenaw Community College, Oakland Community College, Artists Institute of Michigan, University of Michigan, and Macomb Community College.
“The student competition is a wonderful tradition that students always look forward to,” said Martin Pawlusiak, Plymouth Ice Festival Manager. “So many professional carvers got their start at the Plymouth Ice Festival over the years - including three world champion carvers. It provides a great opportunity for students to develop and learn the art and skill of ice carving.”
All sculptures were judged by professional and experienced judges. Paul Nuznov of Henry Ford College took first place in the individual carving competition and team Richards/Wood of Oakland Community College took first place in the team competition. Those individuals will advance to the regional carving competition.
 “None of this could have been possible without the loyal support and participation of sponsors like Genisys Credit Union,” said Pawlusiak.  
                In addition to all the exciting activities that took place, Genisys Credit Union made it possible for guests for the first time to vote for their favorite sculptures using their mobile phones
                “The college carving competition is a great way to bring local colleges and universities together,” said Jackie Buchanan, President/CEO. “Genisys Credit Union is proud to be a part of something that has been around for more than 30 years”.
