One of the other events from our little town’s Winter Carnival was a sledding party. The town closed down part of one of the streets that has a huge hill and they dumped snow from a nearby school parking lot onto the road and patted it down. This required some rather large equipment. Then families lined up to sled (and snowboard) down the hill. By the next morning, the town had cleared the snow away again.

Your town sounds like a fun one! Love the colors of ski jumpers worn. It contrasts well with white snow😁
Our town has a lot of fun events. Thank you, Garfield. Cheers!
How is joy defined? By the smile on a child’s face. 🙂
Definitely. Thank you, Judy. Cheers
Great effort! Would never happen around here…
And so much neon! 😉
We need color in winter and the neon provides it. It is fun small town life. Cheers
What beautiful photographs. It looks like so much fun! 🙂
Thank you so much. It was a fun time. Cheers!
It’s a pleasure! 🙂
Oh, yeah! This is my party… my world 🙂
Veri beautiful, Chris.
Cheers!
Thanks, Monica I think you would have liked it. It has been warm all week. There is hardly any snow left. The fishing shacks are off the lake. My wife and I are going for a bicycle ride at the beach. 🚴♀️
For sure I would have liked it, Chris. It is so crazy 🙂 Bicycle ride? At the beach? Wow! Sounds amazing 😀
I am hoping so. We are on the way there now. I have my camera and a zoom. We will ride in a wildlife sanctuary. Many interesting birds and some deer.
And, for sure, amazing landscapes 🙂
I hope so! It was sure pretty.
Glad to hear that 🙂
Great shots and fun times…for kids. Not sure I’m a fan of this anymore 🙂
Oh, it is not exactly a terrible hill and the temps were good. You would have enjoyed a run or two. Thanks, Teri. Cheers!
Maybe……….. lol
Oh fun 🙂
It was a good time. Thank you. Cheers
Lovely! 🙂
Thank you so much. Cheers
Love the shot of the 2 girls!
Thanks! Aren’t they great with their faces all made up!
You take the sharpest, clearest photos, Chris. This looks like such a blast.
Thank you, Lois. I think the children will remember this for many years. Cheers
Hats off to your town for bringing the community together like this. You certainly captured the essence of the day. Did anyone a little older but young at heart take a turn?
Thank you, Annie. It is a great town. No, I did not see any adults go down the hill while I was there. Cheers!
So much emotion captured in each photograph! Beautiful!
Thank you, Ash. People were really enjoying this. Cheers
The faces of children look ecstatic! Was there also face painting? I may have bleary eyed after watching Oscar’s too late. . . 🙂 Happy week ahead for you and your wife!
I did not stay up for the Oscars. I need my beauty sleep. Have a good week. 😃
Hard to imagine snow when it is hitting 90 here! Looks as if everyone was having fun!
It was a lot of fun. I wish I still had a sled. Cheers
oh, gosh, how wonderful, awesome captures, Chris :)))
we need one of those sleds (?) lol :)) maybe for next winter…
Thanks, Alex. I figured you wanted the snowboard. The sledding looked fun but no kids as big of me were on the hill.
What fun!! Such an enjoyable day☺☺
Yes. People really seemed to enjoy this. 😊
They sure did!☺
