Winter Carnival
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009 by GetawayBC.com
Merritt’s first annual Winter Carnival,
hosted by the Downtown Business Committee Feb. 14, 2009, was such a success that it will be an annual event.
Come, enjoy the games, competitions, food, fun and laughter.
Get a team together and challenge the winners of the bed race, tug-of-war, lawn mower race or swooshing. Or run against the kids in the egg and spoon race- they often do better than the adults! The competitions vary, depending on the weather. The little ones will enjoy the kid’s tent, games, crafts, clowns, entertainers and stories just for them.
Fill up from the healthy snacks table, check out the baked potato drive or nibble on bannock.
Keep an eye out for the dates of the 2010 Winter Carnival. It is an event for all ages.;
