    Ice Sales

    I noticed the ice sales symbol on the Airventure 2017 map at both ends of Ultralight runway and other locations.
    Great idea!
    What is it? Cup of ice or bagged ice? Price?Name:  image.jpg

    I got it today from the Airventure website (plan your trip). And yes it is now showing 2016!
    So what were they selling last year? 10 pound bags of ice? Or anything smaller?

    That is a shuttle map. The main map has more details. (Forum stage numbers, water fountains, etc.)

    They've added additional camp stores this year and all will have ice. Vintage sold ice out the back of the operations building and also had a gator with an ice locker on it but I don't know if they're going to keep that up in the light of the new stores.

    I was hoping to buy 2 pounds of ice to carry in a light thermos bottle or pouch for the day.

    (pssst... buy a 10lb bag of cubes for $X, stand right there, put 2lb in your cooler and the rest into 2lb baggies, sell them each for $1/3X and walk away a cool customer.)

    Would need a health permit, business license, vendor lease....
    Easier to dump the excess on the ground.

    I suppose 10 pounds in a backpack might work.
    Didnt want to carry that much in the hot sun.
