HOUGHTON, MI-- For the second time in the past three years, Tau Kappa Epsilon took first place in the month-long statue division at Michigan Tech’s Winter Carnival.
This year’s theme was “Myths and tales of the past in our frigid forecast.” The TKE’s winning entry along US-41 is “Behold a frozen Thor, mighty god of Viking lore.”
Second place in the overall section went to last year’s winner, Phi Kappa Tau, for “A sword is drawn from a stone and a king ascends an icy throne.” It can be found on Quincy Street in Hancock.
In the all-nighter category, St. Albert the Great University Parrish repeated as the overall winner with a nod to St. George and the Dragon.
An awards ceremony will be held Saturday at 8:30 p.m. at the Rozsa Center, followed by a torchlight parade and fireworks at Mont Ripley at 9:15.
