Hundreds turned out for the fourth annual Lisbon Winter Fest on Saturday. The event takes place at Beaver Park, where residents hiked in snowshoes, took dogsled rides, checked out ice sculptures and skated around on frozen ponds that had formed on the field. After running through the snow and ice, people could grab a hot beverage or food and warm up inside before heading back into the snow.
“It’s a way for people to rediscover the park,” said Mark Stevens. “Sometimes people have lived in this town their whole lives and never get to come to the park.”
