The City of Owen Sound is promoting safe, outdoor recreational opportunities to support physical and mental health.
The City has consulted with the Grey Bruce health Unit on the creation of the SNOWen Sound Frolics which will continue throughout the month of February.
The city is promoting SNOWen Sound Frolics as a safe, physically distanced experience that allows residents to explore some of Owen Sound’s natural and built amenities.
People can look for weekly clues on each new location at the Owen Sound Tourism Events and Attractions website and on social media, @cityowensound and @OSTourism
Participants can use the clues to pinpoint the location, and then go and snap a photo. Then they can share those photos to social media, with the #SNOWenSound.
Those who share photos from all ten of the #SNOWenSound locations will be entered for a chance to win one of two SNOWen Sound Frolics #hyperlocal Grand Prizes. The prizes are valued at $500.00 each. The winners will be announced after the 4-week campaign. Additional weekly giveaways for those who like, comment and share their photos throughout the campaign. Bonus giveaways will be announced on Family Day weekend February 15, 2021.
The public is reminded to follow Covid-19 Provincial guidelines while safely enjoying the outdoor experience. Up to 5 people may gather outdoors, keeping a minimum distance of 2 metres from each other. Face coverings are encouraged.
