Mayor Proclaims Winterfest Weekend


      Lake Havasu Chamber Winterfest Coordinator Sarah Murphy; Winterfest Volunteer Committee Chair Eileen Nexsen; Committee Member Drue Brainard; Chamber Team Members Kathy Tippett and Jeni Coke, watch as the Mayor declares Feb. 10-11 as Winterfest Weekend.

     The second weekend of February has officially been declared “Winterfest Weekend” by Lake Havasu City Mayor Mark Nexsen. Nexsen made the announcement on Jan. 23 in a brief ceremony at City Hall and attended by the Lake Havasu Area Chamber of Commerce staff and Winterfest Committee Volunteers.
        The 22nd Annual Winterfest will be held Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 10-11, on McCulloch Boulevard between Smoketree and Acoma Avenues. Event hours are 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. each day. Winterfest is produced by the Chamber and sponsored by the Lake Havasu City Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Ramada Express Hotel and Casino.
       Recognizing the impact both winter visitors and year-around residents make to the local economy, the mayor’s proclamation states:
       “Whereas, the winter months in Lake Havasu City offer the finest weather in the Southwest for outdoor recreation and festivals for year round residents and winter visitors; and
       Whereas, Lake Havasu City, Arizona’s Desert Oasis and American home of the London Bridge, want to recognize and thank local residents and families and the thousands of visitors who make our community their winter home and for participating in the multitude of winter events;
       Whereas, local, year round residents and winter visitors contribute significantly to the community of Lake Havasu, and sustaining partners will host the 22nd Annual Winterfest Celebration on February 10-11, 2007;
       Now therefore, I, Mark S. Nexsen, Mayor of Lake Havasu City, Arizona, do hereby proclaim February 10-11, 2007 as WINTERFEST WEEKEND in Lake Havasu City, and urge all citizens to participate in appropriate celebration.”
