The Holidays are over and the next
few months often seem the hardest to get
through. The weather deals us all it has
and we can either sit home or watch it as
it happens or get out and do something in
spite of it.
Aroostook County certainly has every
winter activity covered. It’s an important
time of year for those in our business
community. Winter tourism plays a big
part in our economy. While tourists
who travel here become familiar with
the trails, restaurants, hotels and
motels, the question is, how familiar
are you?
Within the pages of this
magazine you will find stories
from communities throughout
the county describing activities
that are happening all winter long.
From festivals to fun-filled weekend
packages, there is a lot to do.
Houlton’s
Moosestompers
Weekend will be held February 5th
through the 7th. You are all invited to
participate in the snowmobile parade, sliding,
ice skating, outdoor contests, a huge bonfire,
inside activities, a fishing derby and so much
more! This is an annual event that has become a
fun tradition for area families. Come and join us!
The New Year’s resolutions that we all make
always include getting out and becoming more
active. There’s a winter activity with your name on
it, visit around the county or close to home to find
out what it is and have fun.
