Leaving this weekend on what will be his very first airplane trip, Dean will be accompanied by Ailsa Craig's Owen Biicisea, Superior Special will make the trip by car, travelling with A Craig's businessman Doug McNair who will transport three other turtles as well which will be competing in the race, fn addition Doug will take out the prize winning float from the Gala Days parade which pie- turfed the well known tale of the tortoise and the hare with Dean and younger brother Todd playing the leading characters. Doug will also take along his own parade entry which will bear the message "Greetings from Ailsa Craig" and arrange for both floats to be in the Bossevain turtle parade, The three other turtles from Ailsa Craig running (?) against Superior Special are being sponsored by the Ailsa Craig Lions Club, the Ailsa Craig Business Association and one being entered by the Doug McNair family, Bossevain turtle officials have promised to return favour and escort Bossevain turtles to Ailsa Craig next summer to compete with their eastern cousins in the Gala Days turtle races, Birthday is 92nd Gramm lady celebrates Tirnes-Advocate, August 12, 1970.
