The Abington Business and Professional Association kicked off the 19th annual Clark Summit Festival of Ice Friday.

The theme was around the world so 59 businesses have sponsored ice sculpture featuring all 7 continents.

A new addition this year is a food tent where all the proceeds go to nonprofit organizations.

They said this event is a gift from businesses to the community.

"It would not happen without all the businesses sponsoring the sculptures, giving us donations toward the food, all of those different activities. So it is to get the community members out, everybody shopping downtown, eating downtown. Seeing each other, seeing the great art, all the talent that’s in the area," said Katie Lane & Janice Vevacqua.

They featured also live bands, dancers, ice carving and other activities all weekend long.
