Winterfest
Winterfest Parkland’s annual Winterfest celebration was a success! While the cold weather hindered the turnout, but we still had tons of activities for the kids – including face painters, horse and sleigh rides, outdoor games, a petting zoo, crafts, hot chocolate, and tons and tons of cupcakes.
These kinds of events cannot happen without those who step forward. First, thank you to organizers Lana Bedard of Remax First and Mary Simon Johnston of Jamie Newton and Associates. Next, thank you to our volunteers Darren Way, Blake Robinson, Erika Diaz, Jennifer Rocker and son Liam, Lisa and Jay Gallant, Mary and Corey Johnston, Willow Anderson, Tianna Ford, Mari Anne Godlonton, Royce Leal of Leal Exterior Renovations, Michelle Haist, and Ryan, all of whom helped with clean up, set up, and everything that needed to be done! Lastly, thank you to the City of Calgary who brought team leaders to do games with the kids.
Make it a date! Next year Winterfest will be in February at the hall. Hope to see you there!
