  by SGupta, 11 months ago
  I came to Regina not long ago. Its been 5 years and coming from a country of hot weather, seeing snowfall for the first time in Regina was like a dream world. My best winter memory in Regina was in 2022 when I volunteered and attended the Frost Regina event. The view inside the Evraz was so mesmerizing as if I am in a out of the world experience with all the lights glowing up the atmosphere. Sliding on the Ice slides outside was something I had never done before. The happiness on my kids's face told it all about... Continue reading

• Memorable Winter Family Activity

  This happened I think in 2010 the granddaughters, our kids and two sets of grandparents had settled in the west ditch on Albert St South to watch the Santa Clause parade. It was a cold windy day and a lot of snow on the ground, we were sitting on lawn chairs with blankets wrapped around us and each kid had an adult's knee to snuggle into.

  Now it was time to go to the other set... Continue reading

  One of my best winter memories in Regina would be when I first moved here. My parents, my brother, and I all moved here in 2004. The trip to get here was a very long trip! We drove here from New Brunswick. That first winter was so surprising to me-the weather was not what I expected!!!

  But it was so wonderful to experience winter in our new home

• Winter Solstice

  by Shaynepaul94, 11 months ago

  Our pup, Nova recently passed from stage 4 cancer. Thinking back on winter; she never really did like it. She would lift her paws and scratch at the door whenever she would want back in. She didn’t like going for walks unless she had the sun gleaming on her coat, and we tried all the booties and winter gear on her we could. The only thing she liked was cruising around in the heated car, wasting gas. That’s what we did, and that was my favorite. Being with her. In the warm car. Wasting gas. I remember telling her that...

  I immigrated from India recently. This is my first winters in Canada & Regina. I experienced my first snowfall of life in Regina. I couldn't sleep whole night with the excitement the day it snowed in November. My excitement knew no boundaries. The snowflakes dropping of and layering all white like a heaven. I was mesmerized and till now I enjoy everyday of winters. Somedays are sunny yet so cold. This place energizes me to go for walk and enjoy my evenings with cup of coffee with cozy home. Creating memories everyday as it's all my first time.
