Let the lights twinkle and the sleigh bells jingle! This holiday season, you’ll find a variety of family-friendly events in the Greater Edmonton Area. From stunning illuminated displays to quiet winter walks, there’s something for everyone. Along with making wonderful holiday memories, you’ll also be helping local charities and worthwhile initiatives.
Edmonton’s winter is cold and snowy, which means there are loads of fun activities that you can enjoy! With ice comes sliding, with snow comes sculpting, and with our long nights comes lots of opportunities to take in the lights, both natural and artificial.
As exciting as it can be to see snow banks melt away in the spring, it can be equally nerve racking if your home isn’t well protected. Late season snowfalls can be heavy here in Alberta, and when all that snow and ice finally decides to melt it can create lakes, rivers, and streams across your yard and next to your house.
We do it every winter, and it comes as no surprise. Our sidewalks, driveways, and decks fill up with layer after layer of snow, and we put on layer after layer to brave the cold and head outside to move it out of the way.
The winter months can do a number on your home’s heating bill. As you crank up your furnace to keep yourself comfy and cozy, snow and ice builds up around your house and the chill tries to sneak inside. It’s a constant battle, fought by insulation, weather stripping, and double-glazed windows, as you try to keep the heat in and the cold out.
