Hey there, folks! Can you believe it’s almost time for Groundhog Day again? And you know what that means – it’s time for our favourite furry weather forecaster, Fenwick Flossie, to make her grand appearance!
For those who may not know, Fenwick Flossie is a beloved groundhog who has been making her yearly debut on Groundhog Day for over 25 years in Pelham. She’s like the local celebrity around here, and we all eagerly await her prediction about the arrival of spring. According to legend, if she sees her shadow on Groundhog Day, we’re in for six more weeks of winter. But if she doesn’t, spring is just around the corner. It’s like our own little weather superstition, and we love it!
But the fun doesn’t stop there. After Fenwick Flossie makes her all-important forecast, she gets to hang out with the kids who come to see her. And let me tell you, it’s a sight to behold. The little ones get to sip on hot chocolate and munch on cookies provided by the Fabulous Fenwick Lions Club, all while meeting and interacting with Flossie herself. It’s like a mini winter carnival and a blast for everyone involved.
Now, mark your calendars because this year’s event is going to be a real hoot. It’s all going down at the Fenwick Lions Clubhouse, 999 Church St Fenwick, on Feb. 2, 2024, at 10 am. So, bring the kids, grab a cup of cocoa, and let’s have a fantastic time celebrating this quirky, heartwarming tradition that brings our community together.
See you there, and let’s hope for an early spring!
