“It’s fun! It’s great for the kids, it’s great to get them outdoors and be active,” said Ruthann Passalacqua, who attended the winter festival. “The fresh air is great for the kids. So I don’t really think it’s cold — I love winter!”

Downtown businesses were open, allowing attendees the opportunity to warm up and participate in some additional activities.
