 The 2015 Navy Masawa Snow Team has kicked off their participation in the annual Sapporo Snow Festival in Japan. Last year's CB-inspired design has given way to a more traditional Navy image, the USS Constitution. The team is creating the large sculpture for this year's festival as a tribute to the U.S. Navy's oldest commissioned warship. Across Japan, millions of visitors flock to Sapporo during the coldest months to see the elaborate temporary creations of part-time sculptors. This is Naval Air Facility Masawa's 32nd year participating in the event, sending talented sailors to represent the Navy as ambassadors. This year marks the 66th snow festival for the Sapporo community and their yearly guests. To see team Navy's progress at the Sapporo Snow Festival, visit navy.mil.
