MILFORD: The Recreation department with the Municipality of East Hants (MEH) held a Winter Fun Day during Milford Meltdown on Saturday morning Feb. 8.

With some fresh snow on the ground, it made for some fun for those who came out.

There was also a chance to try on some Snowshoes provided by MEH and go for a spin in the soccer field.

On the trails, there was a scavenger hunt for participants to try out.

Pat Healey got to try out making some winter art inside and then put on some snowshoes.

He also learned about the equipment loan program for things like the snowshoes that the municipality has in place.
