Fort William Historical Park announces February programming

The annual Voyageur Winter Carnival is returning to Thunder Bay in February with a slate of winter activities in its lineup.

On the weekend of February 14 and 15, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the carnival will offer attendees the chance to go skating or curling on the Kaministiqua River, try snow sports such as snowshoeing, and learn about winter survival skills.

The carnival will also feature live music and farm animals.

The fort is also hosting Indigenous Night Sky Storytelling events on February 5, 19, and 26 at the David Thompson Astronomical Observatory from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

As well as stories, the Night Sky events will feature the observatory’s meteorite collection and space exhibits, and those in attendance will be able to learn about the Anishinaabe star chart.

Details on upcoming events can be found on the historical park’s website.
