'Snow making' some winter fun for Boitanio Park in Williams Lake

The city of Williams Lake now has some snowmaking equipment which could help provide a bit more of a season for park play, if temperatures stay below zero.

If you are a skier or a snowboarder, don't let the brown all around get you down.

Williams Lake now has some snowmaking equipment aimed at helping to ensure the park features in Boitanio Park for accessible entertainment are more usable.

Riley Donahue was volunteering to test out the equipment for the city on Dec. 9 and was seeing some success in creating a little white stuff on the hillsides of Boitanio Park.

The equipment won't be able to turn a warm winter white, but below zero degrees Celsius, it can help provide coverage if things get thin during the season.

It will be interesting to see how the equipment can provide a little lift to recreational opportunities in the lakecity during the winter season.
