Tofield’s Winterfest brings back festive cheer
Tofield had a busy weekend with the Winterfest in town and ‘Stuff the Bus’, followed by a virtual ‘Lighting of the Tree’ and fireworks.
Given that it was held within a pandemic, a few events were modified, while some others were cancelled, such as the ‘Festival of Trees’.
However, that did not dampen the spirit of community members as ‘Stuff the Bus’ event raised $6,400, which includes the match up that Dave Hare traditionally does.
