Waskesiu Children’s Fest allows kids to discover inner explorer
If you walked around Waskesiu Beach this weekend, you would have seen a wide array of activities for children, ranging from tree-hugging lessons to classic face-painting activities.
The anticipated 24th Annual Waskesiu Children’s Festival was held on Saturday July, 16.
For Parks Canada interpreter Colleen Gerwing, who helped co-ordinate the event, seeing attendees enjoying themselves was the best part of the festival.
“When the weather’s nice, everybody’s happy, they go for an ice-cream, they go for a swim, they’re having a good time. It’s pretty laidback and relaxed,” she said, describing the atmosphere at the festival.
