While we may not have mountains, there are plenty of things to do and see in and around Camrose. Recently Tourism Camrose partnered with Alberta Parks and Seekers-Media to showcase some of the fun winter activities, both outdoor and indoor.  The initial feature was on Miquelon Lake Provincial Park and the incredible skating and snowshoeing opportunities available. With Camrose only a 20 minutes drive, why not stay overnight and enjoy a few more activities.  So, if you only have the weekend available, what can you do in 48 hours?
