Adirondack summers seem to bring festivals while Adirondack winters bring carnivals. Spread throughout the Park, towns and villages take out the stops to celebrate the season.
Long Lake is no exception. On January 16, 2016 the community will bring together wacky and wild activities as part of their 15th Long Lake Winter Carnival.
The Carnival kicks-off at noon Saturday with a snowmobile parade and the coronation of the Long Lake Winter Carnival king and queen. From there activities range from a Cardboard Sled Race and Women’s Frying Pan Toss to the Broomball Tournament and Wackiest Hat completion. New for 2016 is the Men’s Feat of Strength. The calendar of events can be found online.
Children of all ages will enjoy an icy version of such old fashioned games as miniature golf, tug o’ war and the ice cube spoon race. As always fireworks round up the winter activities. Enjoy the snow!
