Norway Detective Gary Hill, center, is about to get hit by a snowball as Sierra Powell, in pink boots, blocks a giant snowball that he tossed at her while walking home from school on Whitman Street in Norway on Thursday afternoon. Police Chief Robert Federico, left, and the detective usually join the group of students from Guy E. Rowe Elementary School every day as they walk to and from school. “It’s fun and it teaches us to be safe and responsible,” Powell said. (Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal)
