“Thrills and Spills” of Tobogganing In Port Hope

In Photo Gallery, Weather

It was a “thrills and spills” kind of day on Sunday, January 19, 2020 in Port Hope.

With the first significant snowfall over the weekend, on Sunday it was a time children and children-at-heart hit the Lions Hill just off Strachan Street for some tobogganing.

The fresh power made a perfect combination for heading down the hill, and also for getting a bit of snow you some faces.
