The volunteer group that organizes Vernon Winter Carnival will hold its annual general meeting on Tuesday, June 23, 6 p.m. at Paddlewheel Hall on Okanagan Landing Road.

The public is welcome to attend to meet the board members, and hear what the future holds for Vernon Winter Carnival and the plans for Carnival 2021 – Wild West Carnival – presented by Valley First.

“This is an opportunity for new board members to be nominated and to be voted in. If you’d like to be a part of the 61st annual Vernon Winter Carnival, now is your chance,” said executive director Vicki Proulx. “Join us and help to plan one of Canada’s largest winter festivals right here in Vernon!”

For more information about becoming a member of the society or a board member, or to RSVP, you can email info@vernonwintercarnival.com

“Physical distancing measures will be in place for the meeting,” Proulx added. “Maximum 50 people will be permitted in the space, with 6 feet distance to be kept at all times. For people with compromised immune systems, those who are sick or are uncomfortable attending the event, there will be a Zoom link available through the Carnival website and/or Facebook page.”
