GREETINGS FROM THE MAYOR
It is my pleasure to welcome residents and visitors to the
2016 Riverview Winter Carnival, being held February 5-14.
Now in its 41st year, the festival is a proud part of Riverview’s heritage that
focuses on bringing everyone together in the cold of winter for family fun,
recreation, delicious food and entertainment. Festivities continue for 10
straight days and expand into our community’s business areas.
Make sure to visit the ice sculptures by L’Art Ici SVP dotting the Findlay Park
business area. There’s a chance to win some great prizes too! Riverview is
definitely the place to be for winter fun.
Your Town Council and I are all looking forward to seeing everyone again
at the opening ceremonies on Friday, February 5. Bundle up the family
and enjoy a hot chocolate, go for a skate and listen to live music.
Thank you to the organizing committee, event partners, sponsors and all
of you for promoting a vibrant, prosperous and active community. Happy
Winter Carnival!
Mayor Ann Seamans
WELCOME FROM THE COMMITTEE
The Riverview Winter Carnival is our community’s longest running
festival, and is one that many residents and visitors look forward to every
year. With a focus on outdoor physical activity, it’s a time to come out
of hibernation and breathe in the fresh crisp air! Whether you go for
an exhilarating toboggan ride down the sliding hill, enjoy a sleigh ride
with your loved ones, create a snow sculpture, or strap on a pair of snow
shoes or cross country skis, you’ll be creating lasting memories while
joining in with your friends and neighbours to celebrate this beautiful
time of year.
There is a lot happening inside too! So you can warm up with a pancake
supper, or a five course meal, laugh your cares away at a comedy show,
or enjoy the music at one of our musical showcases. There is lots to see
and do, and it is all brought to you by the many community groups and
volunteers that work hard to plan and execute these events every year.

Appearing at the Coverdale Centre HUBCAP Comedy Show:
Tim Nutt is a comic who can’t be judged
by his cover. Long-haired, bearded and
“rough around the edges,” audiences
expect Nutt’s material to match. But he
surprises with razored-down punch lines
and well conjured-up premises that place
him as one of the top comics working
today. Tim’s way of cutting through the
nonsense of everyday life has made him a
favourite across the country.
Adrienne Fish has been making her mark
on Canada’s comedy scene. Based out
of Toronto, she was nominated by NOW
Magazine as Toronto’s Best Female Stand-up
2015 and for the Tim Sims Encouragement
Award in recognition of up and coming
talent. Always nominated, never the bride.
She combines observational comedy from
her every day life as a gay, stay-at-home
Mom (has no children, but definitely is a
homo) with anecdotal comedy about her
life as a retired gymnast (quit when she was
10). Off stage, she hosts her own weekly
segment on local TV’s “Night Time with
Micheal Charbon, can be heard on Sirius XM
“Canada Laughs”, and was featured in the
documentary “She’s So Funny.”
Simon B. Cotter uses a healthy dose of wit,
candor and charm to entertain audiences
across the globe. Over the years, Simon has
performed at the Just For Laughs Festival,
appearing on CBC-TV Galas five times.
Simon has also appeared on CBC’s Comics!,
as well as CTV/The Comedy Network’s
Comedy Now!. Internationally, Simon has
enjoyed success on A&E’s Evening at the
Improv, The Comedy Store TV Show (UK),
LIVE at Jongleurs (UK) and the BBC’s The
Stand Up Show.
