What's more fun than brainstorming all the fun things you could possibly do this winter and making a Winter Bucket List? Winter may last a while in Chestermere and Langdon but with all the snow we get, we have an endless supply of ideas to enjoy it outside and great activities indoors on those days that the windchill gets too bad. Even if you don't get them all checked off by the end of winter, you'll still have a plan and avoid missing your "must-do" items!
