NORWAY — The 2013 Mellie Dunham Snowshoe Festival, including family snowshoe races, games and a contradance, has been postponed due to the storm.
The races and games have been postponed to Sunday morning, from 10 a.m. to noon, at Roberts Farm Preserve on Roberts Road.
The games are free and are for all ages. They include a three-legged race, musical chairs, 100-yard dash, 1K trail run, egg and spoon race, and the world's only snowshoe wife carry.
All games are played on snowshoes, which are available for loan at the Preserve. Prizes will be awarded for those attending in historic woolen outfits wearing wooden snowshoes.
The contradance and public supper at the Norway Grange, scheduled for Saturday night, has been postponed. A new date has not been set yet.
The presentation on Norway’s snowshoe industries has been rescheduled to 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 15, at the Fare Share Gallery on Main Street in Norway.
