Pauline Parker, of Burlington, Wyoming, started making snowmen for everyone in her town in July. She's made more snowmen than the Burlington population sign says, which is just 314. Word quickly spread to the neighboring towns of Otto and Emblem, whose residents wanted snowmen of their own, so Parker delivered. “Emblem’s sign says population 10 and there’s exactly 10 of them, and they took a picture in front of that sign. And I recreated that picture (for their snowmen,” Parker said. Parker got students at the school involved in painting decorations for the town's second annual holiday celebration and throughout December, is holding a scavenger hunt with a 20-question search for different snowmen in Burlington, Emblem and Otto.
