There are things that every city still needs to add and to me a big thing would be something warm, refreshing and also helpful to others. In downtown Edmonton where many people attend any age. Making a area full of warm drinks snacks and entertainment and even a skating ring for the younger crowd while the parents are visiting each other. People would love to be out and about if there is warmth involved. Winter activates could happen as well some contests like at rabbit hill do something with the young kids like a small Olympics. There is a 3 thousand things to do and have fun in the winter. 3 4 contest We should change all of our sidewalks to skating rinks! The city should stop worrying about shoveling and sanding the sidewalks in winter, and instead spray them all with water early on in the season. We could call them Ice-walks.

  • Try a Different Winter Sport!
    Try a different winter sport! When the temperature drops, people all over the world get involved in winter sports. The most famous is probably skiing, both as a participatory and spectator sport. A huge number of people go ice-skating, sledging and even – if this can be called a sport – making snowmen! Teenagers are particularly good at another sport, called snowball fighting... However, there are many winter sports that are not so well-known. Among them is curling, a game where players slide ‘stones’ (actually an 18-kg polished rock) across a sheet of ice towards a target area. It originated in Scotland in the Middle Ages, has been an Olympic sport since 1998 and was accepted into the Paralympics in 2006. It requires a great deal of skill and it can be very fast and exciting. Both men and women play it. If that does not appeal to you, how about trying skijoring? If you love both horses and snow, this could be a good combination. Just put on your skis, attach yourself to long reins and your horse will pull you over the snow in competition with other like-minded skijoring enthusiasts. If you haven’t got a horse, a very large dog is just as good! We mentioned snowball fighting before. Well, it is not exclusive to the student population of school playgrounds in winter: in fact, it is taken very seriously in Japan, where this sport was invented (they call it Yukigassen), and in other countries as well. Two teams face each other across a wall of ice and eliminate opponents with a well-aimed snowball.
