The Family Day weekend kicked off with some wintry family fun February 16 as the Port Elgin BIA hosted the third annual Snow Fest.
With snow painting, road hockey, face painting, giant bubbles, s'mores and of course the infamous Snow Mountain, children and their families flocked to Coulter Parkette in downtown Port Elgin.
Event organizer Steff Allen praised Town Public Works staff for their mountain making abilities. "They did an amazing job,” she said. “I think it's higher and longer than it was last year for sure.”
With some children lined up for their turn down the Snow Fest hill, others were busy decorating it. "The paint station has been going crazy,” said Allen, who thanked numerous community volunteers who had stepped up to help make Snow Fest possible.
