Snow Social to Return to South Frontenac

Published on: 2025/01/13 - in Entertainment

South Frontenac’s Snow Social will take place on Saturday, January 25, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., at The Point Park and various locations throughout the village of Sydenham. The event, situated 20 minutes north of Kingston is open to the public free of charge, though donations will be accepted.

“This event is a fantastic chance to reconnect with the community after the busy holiday season,” said Mayor Ron Vandewal. “While some may hibernate during winter, here in South Frontenac, we embrace all four seasons. We will be bundled up and ready to make lasting memories together.”

The Point Park will host outdoor activities, including games for children and families, snow tubing on the hill (weather permitting), and food vendors. Indoor options will be available at Lenny’s Deli, which will feature a special menu for the event, and Loughborough Public School, where activities will include crafts for children, a vendor fair, face painting, hot chocolate, storytelling with staff from the Kingston Frontenac Public Library, and other offerings.

Parking for the event will be available at Loughborough Public School, Sydenham High School, and The Point Park. Event organizers ask attendees to refrain from parking on roadsides to ensure access for traffic and wagon rides. Drivers are advised to follow parking volunteers’ instructions, reduce speed throughout the village, and remain mindful of pedestrians.

The Snow Social is made possible through the support of various businesses, clubs, and associations. Hartington Equipment serves as the presenting partner, joined by contributions from seven additional local businesses. Activities at the event will be provided by multiple service clubs and recreation associations.

Details about the full event schedule are available at southfrontenac.net/snowsocial. Those interested in volunteering are asked to email recsupport@southfrontenac.net.
