Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
2013 Lieutenant Governor's Winter Festival
The 2013 Lieutenant Governor's Winter Festival is scheduled for Jan. 31 – Feb. 2.
Now celebrating 10 excellent years, the Lieutenant Governor's Winter Festival has become Brandon's most looked-forward to winter event — a three-day celebration of culture and entertainment that is a hot ticket no matter the cold weather.
As always, the Brandon Sun is conducting continual coverage of the festival, including reporter and photographer visits to all pavilions — from the opening ceremonies at City Hall to the last beer sold on Saturday night. We're even following the volunteers who cook and decorate for days before the pavilions open — and who tackle the clean-up Sunday afternoon.
This story will stay locked on the brandonsun.com home page, so you'll be able to refer back to our ongoing coverage all weekend long.
But look, there's more:
