It's that time of year again — Loti Pencil is receiving its annual sharpening.
Catch up quick: Since its creation in 2022, owner John Higgins has thrown a massive annual party for the community to celebrate the (originally) 16-foot-tall pencil sculpture, carved from a tree in Higgins' front yard by chainsaw sculptor Curtis Ingvoldstad.
What to expect: Professional pencil sharpener David Rees will return for the ceremony, as will the human pencil dancers, marching band and matching giant pencil sharpener.
