White River Water Carnival Mascot “Wally the Water Monster” Comes to Life!

White River Water Carnival Mascot “Wally the Water Monster” Comes to Life! “The image of Wally has been used by the Water Carnival for marketing purposes for the past several years. He was created by a focus group of area school children and is a reflection of what they thought the White River water monster would look like. We are so excited to bring those ideas to life now with our new mascot costume,” said Tourism Director Kyle Christopher.
