RANGELEY — The first WinterPaloozah, a concoction of fun and sports (some of which are a bit unusual) is set for 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 13, on Haley Pond in Rangeley.

A large selection can be found in the warming hut and Ecopelagicon Nature Store),  kick sledding, and cross country skiing on groomed classic and skating trails at the Rangeley Lakes Trails Center on Saddleback Road.

Other activities scheduled for the entire family are:  snowman contest from 1 to 2 p.m.,  hayrides from  5 to 7 p.m.  There will be a hot cocoa bar available all day, sponsored by the Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust.
