This year there were activities for all ages inside and out, from snowshoeing, fatbiking, and archery to cookie decorating and chili sampling. Kid-favourite Battle Balls\u2014large, round inflatable suits that let them bash into their buddies without fear of injury\u2014burned up some excess energy. And wildlife ambassadors brought a fun but educational component to the event.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>After picking up their admission buttons at the entrance to the Dwight Community Centre on Saturday, carnival-goers were met with the savoury smells of the chili cook-off, which pitted variations of the winter comfort classic\u2014made by local restaurants Bear&#8217;s Den Restaurant, Erika&#8217;s, Family Place Restaurant, The Moose Caf\u00e9 and Grill, Route 35, Webster&#8217;s Beacon\u2014against one another for bragging rights. Anyone could sample all six dishes for just $5, and then cast a ballot for their favourite. It was Webster&#8217;s Beacon who earned the most votes and took home top honours.<\/p>\n<p>Also indoors, Speaking of Wildlife, an educational outreach organization, shared stories about Burnaby the wood turtle, who was rescued in Burnaby BC, a long way from its native Eastern Canada\/U.S range; Will Scarlet the red-tailed hawk, who has been an ambassador with the program for almost all of his 19 years; and a skunk named Chanel who was born in captivity and came to Speaking of Wildlife at six months old. They attracted young and old alike, and provided a learning experience, too. Plus, how often do you get to stroke the back of a skunk without fear of a smelly retaliation?<\/p>\n<p>Outdoors, although the sleigh rides had to be cancelled because one of the horses was ill, there was still lots of fresh-air fun to be had. The archery station, complete with animal targets that included everything from a rabbit to a Sasquatch, was a popular activity. Attendees could take some snowshoes for a trek with Find Your Wild, or take a fatbike for a spin courtesy of Algonquin Outfitters. Carnival games like mini-golf, inflatables and a fishing booth rounded out the fun.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy a few photos from the event below and mark your calendars for the 50th annual Dwight Winter Carnival in February 2020!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_61958\" style=\"width: 717px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-61958\" class=\"size-full wp-image-61958\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2019\/02\/Dwight-Winter-Carnival-2-Battle-Balls.jpg\" alt=\"The objective of Battle Balls?
