Ah, yes: outside.

Mother Nature, for once in a very long time, is being a tad fickle. Unseasonably warm weather and rain instead of snow has caused some issues for the directors.

The Balloon Glow, always held on the first Friday of Carnival, is still slated to go from 4-6:30 p.m. at Kal Tire Place and Kin Race Track. The event has been moved from its original spot, Polson Park, because of extremely wet conditions.

A lack of snow at SilverStar Mountain Resort means the BC Snow Sculpture competition has been cancelled, replaced by an ice-carving challenge. A People91裸聊视频檚 Choice vote will take place Sunday, between 10 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. in the village, and awards will be handed out at 12 p.m.

The Ice Slide that has appeared the last couple of years has also been cancelled because of the warm weather.

The Family Fun Park will again be set up at Kal Tire Place91裸聊视频檚 rear parking lot.

One thing that will happen rain or snow or shine is the annual Winter Carnival Parade, which runs at 12 p.m. Saturday. Road closures throughout Vernon will be in affect from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. to accommodate the parade, which runs down 27th Street south, turns west onto 30th Avenue, then north on 29th Street. The parade goes left onto 32nd Avenue, and right on 31st Street, ending on 39th Avenue, behind Civic Park.

Among the indoor events on opening weekend: Sip and Savour Friday night at the Vernon Recreation Centre; the Snow Globe Concert Series Saturday, featuring Cod Gone Wild and Dirt Road Kings, is also at the rec centre. Fans of feathers can check out the Chicken Plop Bingo and Fancy Feather Show, hosted by the Vernon Pigeon and Poultry Club at the Halina Activity Centre Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

A free Family Gym Bouncy Castle will be set up Sunday from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the rec centre. And Celebration of Talent will take place at the Schubert Centre at 1 p.m. Sunday. Admission is free.
