I organized the first celebration in 1998 and every year since! It’s a big job to organize and promote this family friendly celebration, so volunteers would be greatly appreciated and if you have any ideas or suggestions, please contact me, Carla Carlson. 😊
It has become a wonderful, magical event but the parking can be difficult.

In 2009 I added another location for this celebration, Charles Daley Park in Jordan, Town of Lincoln and in 2014 added Ryerson Park, Niagara-on-the-Lake. “One Solstice, One Lake, Three Beaches”
