Sno-Fest and Polar Bears of the Past

Sno-Fest and Polar Bears of the Past

Sno-fest!

Before Kootenay Co-op Radio hosted the annual Polar Bear Swim in Nelson, the event originally took place as part of Nelson’s “Sno-fest”. There was typically a whole assortment of fun activities, from costume contests, to Christmas-Tree bonfires!

Check out photos from previous Sno-Fests!

A huge thank you to Touchstones Nelson for helping us gather these wonderful memories!
