The 2022 Whitefish Winter Carnival LXIII with an 80s Rewind: Totally Rad theme went off over the weekend with people from all over joining in the merriment.
From the annual Penguin Plunge to the Rotary Pancake Breakfast with the highlight being the Grand Parade down Central Avenue on Saturday, the 63rd Winter Carnival proved to continue its tradition as a fun, family event.
Also as part of the Penguin Plunge, participants who plunged into the frigid Whitefish Lake raised over $60,000 for Special Olympics Montana.
