Slated This Weekend
Lucknow's first Summer Craft
Festival, a fledgling at this time
last year, proved to be one of the
finest attractions ever staged in
The Sepoy Town.
If last year's success indicates
anything, it is certainly the fact
that people will be back to Luck-,
now by the thousands this Friday
and Saturday, August 4 and 5 ,
to once again view the many
displays by Ontario crafters 'at
the second annual. Craft Festival.
Last year it was estimated, that
about 8000 people jammed the
village and the arena where the
crafts were displayed.
Well over 100 displays, up con-
siderably/ from last year, will fill
every corner of the 'arena on
Friday and Saturday for this year's
show'.
