W E LCOME
As we continually adjust to the new normal, winter activities in 2021 will look a
little different this year. We are excited to present our Winter Guide; the guide
contains information about Winter Fundays’ virtual programming and other
COVID- safe winter activities to take part in over the next few months.
The virtual programming for Winter FunDays will be sure to get you outside
and enjoy all that winter has to offer with self-guided activities. Staying active
and being creative is a great and safe way to pass the time. The Culture and
Events team has curated a lineup of activities alongside Science North, Willow
Springs Creative Centre, Thunder Bay Museum and others to create six weeks
of fun activities to enjoy safely.
Mark your calendars as you will want to make sure to include these activities
in your winter plans. View this guide for essential information on virtual
programming, a map of the outdoor skating rinks and ponds around the city,
and printable colouring sheets.
Visit www.thunderbay.ca/events for more details or for the most up to date
information follow us on Facebook at Thunder Bay Culture & Events.
Wishing everyone a safe and fun winter!

PROGRAMMING!
In response to Provincial orders and physical distancing mandates, the City’s Winter
FunDays programming will be delivered virtually this winter. With public safety being
top priority, event staff are planning innovative ways of delivering events without
encouraging the large gatherings that typically occur with events of this scale.
Enjoy FREE winter virtual programming for the whole family beginning on
Sunday, January 17, 2021 and taking place every second Sunday until
Sunday, March 28, 2021.
The featured virtual programming can be viewed on the Thunder Bay Culture &
Events’ YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/3bXHT7F.

(made from Kool-Aid or Jello) to produce a wintery masterpiece for the neighborhood to see!
