ARTathalon was an artist-created exercise course that was curated by Northern Lights.mn and part of the winter 4Play MSP event at Fort Snelling State Park on January 9, 2016. The Pink Putter was invited to participate, so she proposed and created Arctic Golf, a four-hole mini golf experience made completely from the snow. It was a huge hit, with hundreds of families and friends playing throughout the event. 

Putters were challenged by Hole 1 – The Volcano

Although difficult, sinking it was not an impossible feat.

Hole 3 – The Snowman was a crowd favorite.

Hole 2 was a classic 45 degree angle shot using a snow tower as the obstacle.

Mr. Snowman survived the day and even witnessed a few hole-in-ones!
