There’s Nothing Like a Child’s First Snow

Since 2005, new arrivals to Portland, Maine, from warm-weather foreign countries have been given a big snowy embrace at the WinterKids “Welcome to Winter Festival.” Sledding and snow-shoeing factor big in an agenda built around teaching kids and parents not just how to stay warm, but how to make true winter fun. This season’s festival is set for January 21, 12:30-2:30 at Payson Park. For more information, visit: winterkids.org
