Scheider Carnival attracted about 20,000 GRAND BEND - While a number of events had to be cancelled at the 12th An- nual Grand Bend Winter Camival due to a lack of snow and melting of ice, coordinator Dave Sheppard said they still met their goal of about 20,000 visitors. "it went very well," he said.. "While the lack of snow did hamper some camival spirits it did allow people to travel." Sheppard said restaurants and bars were extremely busy over the 10 days and a lot of American summer homeowners were back in Grand Bend for the two weekends. Some of the cancellations included: the elementary school snow sculpting due to a lack of snow, the Olde Fashioned Skating Party due to thin, mushy ice, the snow shoe tours through Southcott Pines and the tur- key bowl. Sheppard said the turkey bowl was can- celled because they could not get enough ice on the alleys. But new events like the flea market at the Legion Banquet Hall were well re- ceived, Sheppard said. -ice•cawing winner.
