Igloo Build
Come experience Igloo Build, one of the longest-running traditions at the Museum. Learn how to build an insulated, sturdy house, strong enough to support the weight of a polar bear. Dubbed the #1 Way to Winter Fun by Yankee Magazine (Jan ’09) and a “Top 10 Winter Event” in 2014/2015 by the Vermont Chamber of Commerce, the Igloo Build is fun for the whole family.
The host of the event is Dr. Bert Yankielun, engineer and author of the book How to Build an Igloo and Other Snow Structures. Join him on the Museum grounds at 10:30 a.m. for a demonstration. You’ll learn the structural secrets of building with snow, from making an initial snow angel to placing the final block on the dome to sawing yourself out. Then try your own hand at building an igloo! Indoor activities and presentations included throughout the day. (Outdoor activities are dependent on snow cover).
