Winter Wonderland at Moosomin Regional Park is coming up next Monday, February 16 on the Family Day Monday. People will get a chance to experience Moosomin Regional Park in the winter.
“There will be sleigh rides, hot dogs, hot chocolate, and a ski-doo derby,” says Kyle Jeannot with the Moosomin Regional Park board.
“I think the biggest thing right now is having activities out there for people to do and come and enjoy the day and experience the park in the winter.
Events will take place by the marina, in the same place they were held last year.
Jeannot says about 150 people came out for the event last year, but says it was also a very cold and windy day last year, and he hopes the weather isbetter this year.
He says there are still a lot of people who don’t know how nice Moosomin Regional Park is, and that’s why they host a winter event, to get people out to the park, and then potentially have them come back in the summer months.
“I think it is almost like a hidden gem, it’s not to far off the highway if you are travelling by to stop in. It’s nice and quiet and peaceful, it’s not too busy. You can go there with your family, it’s a place for the kids and you are not always worried about them. There is the lake, there are basketball and tennis courts. There are lots of little things there to offer, it’s really nice.
“The main purpose our Winter Wonderland event is to get people into the park and show them what Moosomin Regional Park can provide, and then at the end of the day hopefully they enjoy it in the winter and then book a campsite in the future. It’s to trying to get them out there so that they have fun in the winter and show them how much fun they can have. They can see what the park has to offer, and maybe come out in the summer time and experience it then as well.”
He says there are still a lot of people who don’t know how nice Moosomin Regional Park is.
