The students at Mitchell Middle School took advantage of the warm weather on Friday and attempted to make 150 snowmen at the end of their school day.

Teacher Jolene Kehler says they chose 150 snowmen because this year is Canada's 150th birthday, and they chose Friday because it was the start of Festival Du Voyageur. She notes the long weekend also didn't hurt.

“It is a long weekend so they get a little antsy around the end of the day today so it is nice to have them not couped up and enjoying the weather.”
