❄️ Scavenger Hunt: Find all of the letters (9 in total!) and place them in a chest in order, then /modreq for a prize!
❄️ Winter Mini Golf: Check the rules hut to learn how to play and grab a club, then weave your way through our challenging course to the very end.
❄️ Polar Bear Plunge: Visit our llama tour stables for an incredible plunge through a wintery scene. Be sure to explore – you just might find something you weren’t expecting.
❄️ Snow Golem Shoot Out: Shoot the minecarts out from beneath the snow golems in this classic carnival game.
❄️ Snow Spleef: Aside from the tournament, you can play Snow Spleef whenever you’d like! Please replace snow when you’re finished, either using snow you’ve collected from /explore, or purchased from the sign shop in the arena.
❄️ Dunk Tank: Plunge staff members and players alike into the icy waters of our frigid dunk tank, now with targets!
❄️ Ice Boat Racing: Grab a boat and try out our Ice Karting course for yourself, or challenge your friends to a race! Pro tip: Hit F5 for a third-person view to minimize dizziness… or don’t!

Whew! So much to do and so little time! Be sure to join us between January 16th and the 31st to get in on the activity – the carnival will move on after the Snow Ball, not to return for another year!
