Winter fun…

The ERBM Recreation and Park District’s Winter Entertainment Series took place this past weekend. There were games in downtown Meeker on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning at several of the parks around town.

On Friday afternoon on the courthouse lawn, this young lady tried out her luck with snowshoes. It was slow going for a while until she caught on. The Friday and Saturday events were sponsored by the ERBM Recreation and Park District in the downtown area on Friday and at three town parks on Saturday.

A group of racers in their cardboard sleds get a push at the starting line on Saturday morning at Paintbrush Park as part of the events Friday and Saturday sponsored by the ERBM Recreation and Park District. There were several classifications of racers during the event.
