Family Day 2017: Celebrating in Edmonton

Edmontonians celebrated Family Day onMonday at events and festivals across the city.

Outdoor events proved popular, despiteovercast weather that closed some outdoor skating rinks.

The Fire and Ice Festival at Lacombe Lake Park in St. Albert included food and games, and the lake was still frozen enough for games of shinny.

The event raised money forMuscular Dystrophy Canada.

Warm weather closed the city hall skating rink in downtown Edmonton, but families still showed up to makecrafts and watch live music.

AtEdmonton Garrison, which has been hosting Family Day events for more than a decade, there were knights and princesses walking the halls. Kids jumped in bouncy castles and played medievalgames.
