The Peninsula Winter Games were started back in 1977 by the late Mr.
Al York, a member of the Soldotna Lions Club. Mr. York recognized the
need to create an event where the local children would have an
opportunity to enjoy sports, games & kid oriented events during the
winter season.
With the passing of Mr. York, Mr. John Torgerson picked up the torch
and, with the help of the Soldotna Lions and numerous volunteers,
carried on the tradition.
While the spotlight of the PWG is on our kids, our
communities benefit from the visitors this premier winter carnival
brings to the Kenai Peninsula during our winter season. The Kenai
Peninsula Tourism Marketing Council has been the facilitator of the
Peninsula Winter Games since 2005. The driving
mechanism of the PWG is the Booster Committee, which consists of
numerous leaders from our participating communities.
