The 10th annual Groundfrog Day celebration is set from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Jan. 31 at the Avenue A gazebo in downtown Snohomish. Instead of counting on groundhog Punxsutawney Phil to predict the coming of spring, people here trust a frog known as the “Snohomish Slew.”
Tim Noah, of Snohomish’s Thumbnail Theater, is hosting the event, which includes activities, games, face-painting, crafts and dancing. Princess Amphibiana is expected to attend.
At 2 p.m., the Snohomish Aquatic Center, at 516 Maple Avenue, is hosting a “pond party”
