For those wanting to leave the house on New Year’s Day, there is a tradition at Government House that has been taking place for more than 100 years.
It’s the lieutenant-governor’s New Year’s Levee.
“Typically people in the community have been invited by the Lieutenant Governor to come in and exchange New Year’s greetings at Government House and kick off the New Year with other community members,” said Carolyn Speirs, a spokesperson for the lieutenant-governor.
This year’s levee will be the first for newly-appointed Lieutenant-Governor Russell Mirasty and his wife Donna.
The event runs from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Usually an event for adults, there will be activities for kids this year as well.
“We did want to add something for families who are bringing young children. Kids can join our craft room. They make a beautiful, sparkly crown of their very own,” Speirs said.
She added the gathering will also see visits by Anna and Elsa, characters from the movie Frozen.
Parking is available at Luther College. Visitors can also arrive by Rider Express.
