The ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has required us all to limit social contact and avoid large gatherings. It is for this reason that the Snowtown USA committee has made the difficult decision to cancel 2021 events. While disappointing, we feel it is necessary to do our part to keep our community safe. We look forward to Snowtown 2022.
Snowtown USA is an annual event that has become a North Country tradition. Each year, hundreds of community members participate in a wide range of winter events and activities that center around the celebration of snow.
Following the blizzard of 1977, former CBS Evening News anchor Walter Cronkite coined the phrase “Snowtown USA” when reporting that a blizzard dumped some 220 inches of snow in Watertown. A few years later, organizers used that same phrase as the name of the newly created festival.
Sincerely,
Snowtown USA Committee
There are no up-coming events
