Families brave the cold for Wintertainment kickoff
Despite chilly blowing winds and a bit less snow than expected, families still showed up at the River Valley Visitor Centre today for the first day of Wintertainment Week.
Horse-drawn carriage rides, hot chocolate and wiener roasts were free for residents. Sharon Taylor came out for the festivities, and brought her daughter Leeza and granddaughter Arianna along.
“It’s an exciting activity,” Sharon said. “I’m glad that we’re doing something like this in the Battlefords. I am disappointed that the snow didn’t cooperate, but overall it’s a good day.”
Five-year-old Arianna said her favourite part was the carriage ride, and she had fun nicknaming the horses.
