There was all kinds of winter fun to be had around Concord this past weekend. White Park hosted the Winter Carnival on Saturday, and Beaver Meadow Golf Course held the Blast Into Winter Family Fun Day on Sunday. The Winter Carnival saw dozens brave the super-cold temps and take to the ice and sled slopes. The Blast Into Winter event wasn’t quite as popular, despite undoubtedly nicer weather. Perhaps the looming Patriots game had something to do with it? In any event, the few that did turn out to Beaver Meadow had a good time.
