Get Ready for Groundhog Day Predictions!

Hey there, young readers! Are you curious about whether we’ll have a longer winter or an early spring this year? Well, mark your calendars because Sunday is Groundhog Day, and it’s time for the famous predictions to be made!

Past Predictions and Anecdotes

Did you know that officials at the Shanak Wildlife Park have trained Sam the groundhog to make this year’s prediction? Sam is quite the star, but let’s not forget about past predictions made by other furry forecasters.

  • There was one prediction where a gloved hand was caught subtly nudging the groundhog out – talk about reluctant!
  • Don’t miss the event where Sam will be joined by Nova Scotia’s Minister of Natural Resources, Tony Rushon, this Sunday at 7:45 a.m.

What the Folklore Says

According to folklore, if the groundhog sees its shadow, we’ll have six more weeks of winter. But if there’s no shadow, get ready for an early spring! Exciting, isn’t it?

Don’t Forget Lucy the Lobster!

As if one prediction wasn’t enough, Lucy the Lobster will be making her own forecast at 8:00 a.m. at the Cape Sable Island Causeway. Officials claim she’s been 100% accurate so far – impressive, right?

Mark Your Calendars for Fun Activities!

Not only will you get to witness these unique predictions, but there will also be activities planned at the park until 3 p.m. Sounds like a perfect way to spend a Sunday, don’t you think?

So, get ready to enjoy a day filled with excitement, folklore, and maybe even a sneak peek into the changing seasons. Don’t miss out on this fun event and who knows – you might just witness history in the making!
