Today, 15 blind and low-vision students from Nevada Blind Children’s Foundation (NBCF) ages five to 19 as well as their chaperones enjoyed a special visit to Minus5º ICE Experience at Mandalay Bay for a frosty, 23-degree experience created by expert ice sculptors out of 90 tons of carved ice.
After donning warm coats and gloves, the children were escorted into the ice lounge, where they explored the space.
