National Toboggan Championships - - Camden

So what if Florida has the Super Bowl! We have  our own national sports spectacle – - The National Toboggan Championships, held at the Camden Snow Bowl, February 5-7, 2010!

National Toboggan Championships - - Camden.

A mix between Carnival or Mardi Gras, and the Winter Olympics, this event is an example of what happens in Maine when the temperatures get lower and the days get shorter. Winter alters our brain cells and fun breaks out.

Looks like fun at the Camden Snow Bowl. Check out the website for current conditions. And while you’re there be sure to check out the U.S. National Toboggan Championships, February 6-8. Don’t forget to get your registration form if you want to participate. The deadline is January 23!

And be sure to put it on your calendar for lottsa winter fun. It’s kind of Maine’s version of Mardi Gras. Well, almost. But in the middle of winter we all need to get a little crazy.
