The public was invited to attend Winter Celebration at Rideau Hall on February 1st.
As part of this frosty fun-filled afternoon of family activities, Her Excellency the Right Honourable Mary Simon, Governor General of Canada, conducted a walkabout on the Rideau Hall grounds to meet visitors and take in the outdoor activities and performances.
All activities were free, but visitors were encouraged to pay it forward by bringing gently used articles of winter clothing for the Snowsuit Fund.
This event was made possible thanks to the generosity and participation of many embassies and organizations located in the National Capital Region.
