In past years, putting together this roundup of winter events meant previewing things like outdoor festivals celebrating the snow, ice bars at restaurants and resorts, and the annual U.S. National Toboggan Championships at the Camden Snow Bowl. And then the pandemic came knocking, putting our ability to gather on ice. But there are still plenty of ways to make the most of winter.
Many of those events have been postponed for a year, which means this year’s slate looks a lot different. But will that stop us hardy Mainers from celebrating winter? Heck, no! Pandemic or not, we’ve still got full moons, starry skies and other reasons to skip in our Bean Boots (though some more snow would help a lot). So, let us forge ahead (safely) with what’s left of winter and make the most of this wondrous season.
