2017 Winter Picnic Comcast sponsored Big Brothers Big Sisters’ annual Winter Picnic at Holidazzle in Minneapolis’ Loring Park. Over 300 Bigs, Littles and their families were greeted by the BBBS match support team and enjoyed ice skating, art projects and a photo scavenger hunt. It was an unusually warm December day for Matches to explore the winter festival, visit food and gift booths and take a few funny winter photos! Attendees were given vouchers to enjoy the local Holidazzle delights — from buttery pierogis to cheese curds, there was an array of delicious food from local vendors.
