RANGELEY – The Family Winter Carnival at Orgonon will be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 14, at the Conference Center, Wilhelm Reich Museum, Dodge Pond Road.

Beginning at 11 a.m., a “Quinzee,” a snow shelter, will be made by piling snow and packing it down while adding layers.

When it is the size wanted, it is scooped out. A scoop is made by cutting one side off an empty plastic detergent bottle that has a handle. Those wishing to take part are asked to make one and bring it.

At 1 p.m., George Adams will present a PowerPoint presentation on “Wildlife and Landscapes,” using his photographs and telling stories about how he got the shots.

There will be a Ball Tent, and Jump and Slide for younger children. And all ages will be able to participate in outside activities like snowshoeing, sliding and cross country skiing. Bill Roy will lead a snowshoe trek.

Hands-on activities from the museum’s discovery room, as well as crafts, will be available inside.

There will be a fire in the fireplace for cooking. Food will be available for a donation or those wishing may bring a lunch.
