Plans are well underway for the annual Kenora Winter Carnival.The carnival will be taking place during the first weekend of the spring break this year.
That's a week later than usual.
Crystal Stokes is the city's special events coordinator and says they've shied away in the past from holding the winter carnival during the spring break, worried that too many people leave town to go on holiday.
However, she says the flip-side of the coin is a lot of families do stay home and are looking for
activities for the children.
She adds that by holding the carnival a week later, they are hoping to take advantage of a little
warmer weather.
The winter carnival will take place on Kenora Harborfront March 7th, 8th and 9th.
