Winter Carnival was one of the most popular social events for employees at CFS Carp. Employees were divided into teams and would compete in a variety of fun and crazy games. None of the Winter Carnival games were supposed to require skill or athleticism; they were all about having fun and increasing morale. Employees competed in events such as ring toss, tug-of-war and snow shoeing competitions - some men even dressed up as women to compete in the games!

The Cafeteria was the social centre of the Diefenbunker. Employees could come to the Cafeteria to enjoy a game in the recreation area, or to enjoy a nice meal with colleagues and friends. One of the most important social events at the Diefenbunker was the annual Christmas Dinner. Many CFS Carp employees were expected to work over the Christmas Holidays; Christmas Dinner gave them something to look forward to. Senior Officers were responsible for serving the feast to the lower ranks, much to the amusement of the junior ranks.
