Winter is not a time for the blues, blahs or cabin fever.
Bust out and enjoy the snowsledding options on
over 13,000 miles of groomed trails. Take a peek at last year's Moosestomper's Weekend celebration. The events of the winter celebration now held in Houlton Maine, was borrowed from a Loring Air Force Base in Limestone ME tradition. When LAFB commander Alan Bean who mothballed the facility became the Houlton Maine town manager, he resurrected Moosestompers.
Kids hunt, dig, scramble for half dollars in snowpiles in different age classes, play in unique games like human curling, dog sled races.
The Millar Civic Center opens the place for free public skating and free prizes. Free horse sleigh rides, fireworks, bon fires, hockey tournaments, sliding on derby hill and a snowsled light parade down main street all part of the fun and games weekend. The local Southern
Aroostook snow sled clubs also have suppers, breakfasts and get involved in the celebration. From snow shoeing, a fishing derby to a 5 K wild snow run, there is something for everyone.
