Lowville Winter Games - Beat the Winter Blues!

Lowville Winter Games - Beat the Winter Blues!

It's time to sharpen up your skates and wax the family toboggan. The village of Lowville, north of Britannia Road on Guelph Line in Burlington, is holding their annual winter games on Sunday, February 7th, 2010 from 12 noon to 4pm.

This fun-filled day will take place at Lowville Park. Come early for the Pancake Eating Contest which is being sponsored by Golden Griddle.

They'll be horse drawn wagon rides, log sawing, entertainment, tobogganing, skating, crafts and games for the whole family.

The Lowville United Church will have goodies for sale to stave off those winter munchy attacks after an afternoon spent skating or tobogganing.

What better way for families to have fun together? The Lowville Winter Game events are free!

Leave your car at the Halton District School Board parking lot (first driveway west of Guelph Line on Upper Middle Road) and take the FREE shuttle bus starting at noon.
That way you'll be sure to not have to worry over where you're going to park when you arrive at Lowville Park.

For more information about the Lowville Winter Games call 905-335-7600 ext 7201.

Burlington Santa Claus Parade is Coming to Town! Sunday, December 6th, 2009

Burlington Santa Claus Parade

The Burlington Santa Claus Parade is Coming to Town! Sunday, December 6th, 2009

With a nip in the air and a steady stream of Christmas related commercials on television, I know that time is drawing near again.

Time for the sights and sounds of lively floats and marching bands while people sit bundled up on lawn chairs along the roadsides.
It's Christmas parade time once more!

The Burlington Santa Claus Parade will host 65 entries this year and will begin at 2pm Sunday, December 6th.

Gather your thermos of hot chocolate and pack some snacks for the kids.

Make sure everyone is sporting a colourful scarf and wooly hat or hood and packing an old car blanket or two won't hurt in the least.

The parade begins at Burlington Mall on Guelph Line and will continue down Guelph line to New Street.
At New Street it will travel west towards downtown to James Street and then will go north on Brant.

The grand finish will be at Brant and Caroline.

Parade day is always an excellent way to usher in the Christmas season and many families choose this day to put up their tree.

Burlington Santa Claus Parade is coming to town!




Not to be outdone, the City of Burlington will hold it's 'Festival of Lights' at Spencer Smith Park after the parade and the official lighting ot the 'Tree of Hope' will leave a sparkle in the eyes of all onlookers.

Make this a family day and plan to attend both events. You'll be creating lasting memories for you and your loved ones and perhaps this will become an annual tradition in your household, that is if it isn't already.

The Burlington Santa Clause Parade and the Festival of Lights. Two grand events you won't want to miss.
See you there!
