Last year, the SnowBowl brought in 8,000 to 10,000 people to Caribou, so organizers are scrambling for options despite a lack of snow.
"I've been doing this for 30 years, and I've never seen a winter like this," said Gary Marquis, Caribou Parks & Recreation superintendent.
The SnowBowl helped jumpstart a revitalization of Spud Speedway, now entering its 60th year, and boosted Aroostook's trail system.
In less than a year, Spud has gone from hosting just a few annual events to being one of Aroostook's most sought-after venues for motor race enthusiasts and families.
