Cooperstown Winter Carnival 2008
Shiver Me Timbers!

The Cooperstown Winter Carnival (CWC), a long-time traditional winter festival, began in 1967 with the intention of offering a variety of activities for residents and tourists to Cooperstown during the early winter month of February. The CWC brings people out into the cold and gives them a reason to celebrate with their friends, neighbors, and visitors. Each year the CWC creates new and exciting events, while bringing the same traditions back that people have come to expect.

The Winter Carnival Committee proudly announces the theme of this year's Carnival - "Shiver Me Timbers!" - to be held February 8, 9 and 10, 2008. The annual festival will combine the usual favorite activities with new and exciting events for children and adults of all ages, centered around this year's Pirate theme!

Another addition to the Carnival this year will be the second "Find Frosty Medallion Hunt." Stay tuned for more details on this exciting challenge in the weeks leading up to Carnival!

Please check back soon for the 2008 schedule of events and entry forms. The CWC is coordinated by a team of 10 volunteers and involves hundreds of businesses and organizations that provide support, resources, and programs and activities. We look forward to seeing you at the Cooperstown Winter Carnival!

This Event is sponsored by the Cooperstown Lions Club
