PHOTOS: Lake Country Children’s Festival returns for 1st time in 4 years

More than 1,000 people attended the event

For the first time since 2019, the Lake Country Indoor Children’s Festival made its return on Saturday, Mar. 9.

A variety of entertainment was scattered across George Elliot Secondary School and the Creekside Theatre as more than 1,000 people attended the four-hour event.

The foyer was packed with activities as well as both gyms. Some of the activities included soccer, capture the flag, basketball, table tennis, a puzzle station, a bouncy castle, painting, and much more. A bylaw officer also had a sprinting station set up, to see how fast kids could run using a radar gun. There was also a 45-minute family Zumba session.

There were also many stations with multi-cultural activities, including trying on a turban.

In the theatre, Alex Zerbe the Zaniac performed two shows to a full house.

ā€œI try to make my show like the movie Shrek, super entertaining for the kids but there’s a whole other level of comedy for teens and adults,ā€ said Zerbe before the shows.

The Lake Country Fire Department was also on scene showing kids one of their fire trucks.
