The Ottawa City Recreation summer activities closed Wednesday with the annual game carnival at Rigden Park.

Children played a number of games at a carnival midway for $0.10 apiece, and prizes were awarded.

The summer program lasted eight weeks, featuring a number of activities for children, with an event every Wednesday from a magician’s visit to a zoo trip, among others.
