 So much on the go in the city this weekend! This is just a sampling so head to our event calendar for even more! 1. It's African Heritage Month and the Halifax Public Libraries have tons of great events the whole month long. Go here for a complete schedule. We'll be highlighting a few as the month progresses, starting with the National African-American Read-In at the Woodlawn Public Library tomorrow. 2. If you feel like a small road trip you might want to head to Truro for the Winter Long John Festival . It kicks off Sunday and offers horse and wagon rides, snowshoeing, skating and dancing! 3. Bring the kids out to enjoy balloons, games, music, face painting, cake, walks, bounce castles, carnival treats, crafts and MUCH MUCH MORE at the Kids Carnival Play Centre at MSVU on Sunday! 4. Lights! Camera! Action! On Saturday Feb 4th kids 8+ can head to the Dartmouth North Public Library to create their own short animated movie that they can share with their friends online! 5. It's the last weekend to trek to the valley for Eagle Watch 2012 . With the colder temps there have been lots of eagle sightings as they come in to the feeding station. There's a great pancake and sausage breakfast until 2:00 at the community centre so you can fill up before the drive back! 6. Have you been grossed-out at the Discovery Centre yet? Head there for the fun & disgusting new exhibit Grossology! ...
