The Guides and Brownies did a successful business selling lemonade and small toys and they also featured a draw for a doll house and a Winnie the P00 toy. Winners of these draws were Mrs. I. H. Hill of 5754 Yonge Street, Willowdale, who won the doll house and David Langstone of 10 River- side Boulevard who was the winner of the P00 toy. The Guides and Brownies would like to thank all residents who helped in the success of their booth. However, there was still lots going on before the rain began, including pony rides for the children, a folk concert featur- ing local talent. which proved to be especially popular with the teens of the area, and the cider garden which also did a brisk business. Another pop- ular attraction was the fishing ring sponsored by the York Anglers Association and the mouth to mouth resusitation demonstration given by the Red Cross also drew an interesting audience. numlulmmmmumumnuuuummunumuuummmuul“mum Dommlon Day Although heavy rain began to fall half way during the pro- ceedings. it did little to dampen the enthusiasm of Thornhill residents for the Dominion Day Village Festival, sponsored by the Lions Club and held in the village park.
