THUNDER BAY – When the skies threatened to rain down on the Thunder Bay area this weekend, organizers of the Chippewa Park Children’s Festival had some decisions to make.
They decided to go ahead anyway, and Mother Nature gave them a little drizzle, but didn’t stop hordes of families from stopping by the park on Sunday to check out the games, face painting and Chippewa rides – not to mention a very popular petting zoo featuring rabbits, chickens and even a goat.“I liked the bouncy castles and I got to hold a baby bunny,” he said.
“The best thing about this is I got to pet a goat and I got to pet bunnies. And we’re about to get both of our faces painted,” she said, unsure of what design to choose from at the face-painting station. “As we were mumbling to ourselves, do we go ahead or do we cancel, we figured we’ve got lots of indoor space in the pavilion, so let’s just rearrange things. I’m so glad, because we’ve had hundreds of people come out, starting at 10 o’clock this morning and they keep coming,” Angus said.It’s also all about showcasing Chippewa Park and its activities, not to mention helping a grassroots community organization.
