On this date in 2008 a record snowfall in Shawinigan Quebec prompted one entrepreneur to advertise his snow bank for sale. Promising to deliver it anywhere in Quebec at anytime including for a summer snow party in July.

Taking out a local newspaper ad, he managed to sell 3 truckloads of snow for delivery in the Summer. Covering the snow with a layer of wood shavings in the backyard, the massive snow pile remained until delivery in August
