A Word From
Carnival Fans
The Walden Winter Carnival is my favourite and I look forward to it every year. .. There are so many fun activities like games, entertainment shows, the haunted hallway, and tractor rides.

Lacey’s Favourite
The Walden winter carnival is fun because of the contests, performances, and great activities. Some of the things I like most are the giant soccer bubbles and the magic performances. There is plenty to do during the weekend, so you are always having a great time!
