The Labor Day Long Weekend is now underway, with the Moose Mountain Provincial Park expecting another busy few days.

According to Parks Supervisor Gordon Locke, the park is celebrating with a scavenger hunt Saturday with the winner receiving a special prize package.

 

He adds that attendance has been up this year, something he credits to the price of gas and people's willingness to seek recreation closer to home.

 

Although the Labor Day Long Weekend is traditionally considered the last long weekend of the summer, camping is still available at the Moose Mountain Provincial Park through to October.
