The Municipality of Cantley will host its annual Winter Carnival on Saturday, January 25, offering a day of free family-friendly activities from 10 - 4 pm. The event will take place at the Multifunctional Community Center, located at 6 Impasse des Étoiles, and at River Park, adjacent to the center.

Indoor activities will include a magic workshop, archery initiation, and a treasure hunt, as well as bingo and free gym activities. Children can also enjoy face painting while families relax at the Petit Café de Cantley. Outside, visitors can participate in snow sliding, with sleds available on-site, or try their hand at winter sports like snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. An inflatable structure and songbook will also provide additional entertainment.

A free spaghetti dinner will be served from 11:30 -1:30 pm, offering a warm meal to attendees. All activities, including the dinner, are offered at no charge, making the event an accessible opportunity for families to enjoy a winter outing together.

In the event of inclement weather, the carnival will be moved indoors, ensuring that the festivities will continue regardless of conditions. Organisers encourage attendees to check the event website at cantley.ca/culture-et-loisirs/carnaval-de-cantley for any updates before the day of the carnival.
