Instead, it relates to a day where the school hires a dude to come out with several big friggin' blocks of ice and generate several hundred cubic feet of machine-generated snow on the ground so the kids can go play in it. (Apparently, this is the kind of gig that local contractors do when they're not on set generating snow for the latest Bruce Willis flick.)
You may now mock.

You have man made snow just like the ski areas so the pre school kids can go play in it? okayyy. that is SO LA!
um, so what do they wear. do you go out and buy expensive winter gear so they won't freeze their tookus off rolling around in it?
