Dianne’s Sno Dig

The SNOW DIG has been a very popular event for the last few years. This free event is sponsored by Dianne Anstead, owner of Tri Village Pizza. She foil wraps $100.00 in loonies and toonies. Then the coins are buried in a big pile of snow. Children up to the age of 10 years old are invited to ‘dig for the gold’. Dianne suggests everyone should bring a couple pairs of mitts because your hands get cold! Have fun!

Bonfire and Fireworks Display

People are all over - they watch from their ATV’s and Snowmobiles, they watch from widows and balconies, they are on their snow covered lawns with fires burning, they are parked on the ice, cheering in the cool evening air. The crowd is as exciting as the great display of fireworks. It is always a heavy discussion on taking donated money from business, volunteer groups, and private individuals to put on this display but after you experience the atmosphere it just completes the Saturday activities. Come out Saturday night February 18th at 9:00 p.m. and be part of the experience. Thanks to everyone that has contributed to make this event possible.

Snow Sculpturing Competition

For the 4th year in a row; we actually have a large enough area where all the snow sculptures can be made and seen, in one convenient spot!. Off the Beach Foods parking lot is the perfect area! Blocks of snow 4ft wide, 4ft high, and 8ft long will be made. There are a few basic rules. No color, just snow is allowed. Very minimal accessories are allowed. (If you make a snowman, you may use rocks for the eyes.) That’s just an example, but you get the picture. JUST SNOW is your best bet. Judging will take place Sunday after lunch. Plaques are awarded for first, second and third place. Local senior members of the community are asked to judge the sculptures.

To register you can call Chere at BeachComber (780) 924-3242
