Snowball Festival Rescheduled Because Of Winter Weather

A snowball festival in Virginia, US, had to be rescheduled due to too much snow.

According to a country spokesperson, the Chesterfield County’s Snowball Festival had to be rescheduled from Saturday, February 8, to Sunday, February 9, due to forecasted inclement weather.

The festival featured activities, music and food to help locals celebrate winter with their family and friends.

The day went ahead without a hitch on Sunday, with 5,000 attendees enjoying the winter-themed fun.

Special Events Coordinator for Chesterfield County Parks and Recreation Vicki Kiger told 8News: “What’s got more fun than this? I mean, we’ve got everything, we’ve got the largest bounce house you can get in, which is 25 [feet] tall…”

“It’s just a great free event, it’s free for families to come out, so there’s something for everybody — young, old, from little kids to older people, we’ve got it all.”
