RANGELEY – The Maine Forestry Museum (formerly The Rangeley Lakes Region Logging Museum) invites every girl and boy aged 6 to 8 to sign up for the Little Miss and Mister Woodchip Contest to be held on July 29 at 7 p.m. at the Forestry Museum grounds at 221 Stratton Road, Dallas Plantation. The Woodchip program is part of the Museum’s 36th Annual Logging Festival, July 2 and 30.

Contestants may sing a song or recite a poem; they may choose a favorite or write their own. (Other performances, such as dancing or playing musical instruments, will not be accepted toward the competition). Every Woodchip contestant receives a prize. Winners will ride in the Little Miss and Mister Woodchip float in the Forestry Museum parade on Saturday, July 30, and be introduced at the Festival immediately after the parade.

To enter children in the contest, please contact Liz Pimentel (917-836-1632).

This year we have something special to add to the evening’s events. The fabulous clogging group InClogNeato will thrill the audience with their dancing after the contest.

The Maine Forestry Museum, located at 221 Stratton Road, opens Wednesday through Sunday from 11-5. For more information about the Museum and its events, call 864-3939 and visit the Museum facebook page and website: http://rlrlm.org
