A hundred yards of red fleece and the willing hands of scores Mountain Valley Middle School pupils and staff is going into the creation of a 50-foot in circumference hat for Bethel’s giant snowwoman. Family and Consumer Science teacher, Lorraine Tanguay, organizer of the giant project, is shown with two of the pupils who have devoted afternoon school hours to putting the hat together. Sixth-grader Kristin Gould holds a mock-up of what the hat will look like when it is finished on Thursday. Sixth-grader Brian Farrar was preparing to cut more pieces of the hat. The giant snowwoman is a project of the Bethel Area Chamber of Commerce. The goal is to exceed the more than 100-foot height of Angus, the snowman, that was built in 1999.
