Spring is in the air

Fun times and spring celebrations will hit Nunavut’s capital city next week.

Toonik Tyme, Iqaluit’s annual celebration welcoming the arrival of spring, will kick off on April 17.

This is the 37th year for Toonik Tyme.

There’s an array of outdoor games and races planned for the four-day event.

On Thursday April 18, igloo builders will strut their stuff in the igloo-building contest. In addition, an ice sculpting competition will take place.

On Friday April 19, golfers will tee off on the Frobisher Bay sea ice.

The following day, seamstresses and carvers will sell their handiwork in the Toonik Tyme craft fair.

A fairly new addition to Toonik Tyme, the Iqaluit strength challenge, takes place on Saturday April 20. This event tests endurance and strength, seeing who can pull, toss, carry or lift the most.

The City of Iqaluit’s recreation department, along with a host of local volunteers, helped organize this year’s activities.
