May and June are busy times on the calendar in Manitoba, but not just for us adults – it’s also a social time of year for kids.
Many of our kids’ birthday parties and sports windups will be taking place within the next month or so before summer starts and all their friends go separate ways.
This means you’re facing a double cohort of not only May and June birthdays, but July and August as well as parents do their damndest to get their child the best party they can.
So as you try to plan your child’s party, you might start looking to alternatives from the traditional cake-and-ice cream home party, and one of the best things you can do as a parent is provide your child with a great seasonal party, which means an outdoor activity, and usually will include some pool fun.
There’s only one problem though – an outdoor pool party, of course, is subject to the famed Manitoba outdoor weather conditions, which can be bright and sunny one minute and be in a downpour a minute later.
So why not bring the outdoors indoors?
That’s what we’ve done at The Burntwood Hotel. We have the only indoor waterslide in all of Thompson, and we have it available for your child and their friends for that birthday party, wind-up party or other kid-targeted celebration.

Whether it’s for business, for family or for friends, there’s nothing that peaks the emotions of loved ones like getting together to celebrate an individual, couple or group. Occasions like milestone anniversaries, sports league windups and successful quarters in the office can all be feted, and the feeling that the person receiving the honour gets when they walk into a room and seeing so many people coming together just for them is unlike anything else they’ll experience.
