REDVERS - The Redvers Winterfest is back for its fifth year and will take place Dec. 11.
The Observer had the opportunity to interview three of its committee members, Kendra Miller, Kayleen Gaudet and Megan Ellison.
Said Miller: “This year’s Winterfest will be better than ever. The day is entirely family oriented and is loaded with activities for children of all ages.”
A pancake breakfast starts the day off at the newly opened Rising Phoenix Café from 9 a.m.- 1 p.m. Other restaurants in Redvers are also holding various promotions that day.
There will be photos with Santa, a magician, and a balloon artist. There will be a performance and a photo op with Elsa the Princess from the Frozen movie franchise. Sleigh rides will be held throughout the afternoon.
At 1:45 p.m. the movie The Grinch will be played at the Artemis Dance Studio. Adults can enjoy the trade show 小蓝视频 set up by various vendors and there will be craft time available for the kids. Children can also participate in the town-wide scavenger hunt.
That evening, there will be a memory tree lighting at 5 p.m., with a parade to follow. The Town of Redvers transit bus will also provide seniors with a Twinkle Tour that night, with residences and businesses to be judged on their decorations.
Also, from 5-8 p.m., there will be a town bonfire held at the parking lot of Today’s Enterprises, hosted by the Redvers Fire Department.
Miller, Gaudet and Ellison are all very excited about this year’s event. Added Gaudet: “The children of Redvers and the surrounding area are going to have a great time. It should be an action-packed Saturday.”
