2,000 al Van Egrnond
ciderfest
By Wilma Oke
Under sunny skies Sunday,
over 2,000 persons attended
the Ciderfest in ' Seaforth
sponsored by the VanEgmond
Foundation.
A constant throng of
visitors packed the
auditorium and halls of the
Seaforth Public School where
most of the booths and en-_
tertainment were held when
rain right up to Saturday
night threatened to wash out
the affair at the grounds of
the historic old VanEgmond
.house in Egmondville. The
Ciderfest is held to -'raise
funds for restoration • of the
building.
Gallons of' cider made on
the spot were sold along with
freshly made sausages
stuffed while you waited.
Honey extracting, chair
caning, spinning - raw wool
into yarn, and quilting were a
few of the demonstrations
that attracted a large crowd.
Pottery, hand knitted ar-
ticles of all kinds, homemade
jams and jellies, vegetables,
fruits,, potted plants, flower
and toys were among :thd'k
wares for sale and as well
there was a flea market.
Entertainment 'was
provided by Murray Draper
of Clinton with his 1904
gramophone (Reginaphone)
playing old time music and
out on the front lawn of the
school the Seaforth-
Dashwood Community brass
band played. Sausage
burgers, cookies, cold and hot
mulled cider were sold.
The community's second.
event of the day was a tour
and open house of the
downtown 'Cardno Block
which houses the century old
former Cardno Opera Hall on
the second floor. The hall
constructed in 1877 comprises
an elegant 600 -seat theatre in
the Victorian style. The
music and concert hall was
opened on December 15, 1877.
It had a good stage, dressing,
rooms and also a banquet
hall. Many elegant fancy
dress balls were held there;
with guests staying overnight
in • local hotels where 'they
made their reservations a
year before.
The block completed cost
over $30,000 and when first
built it was lighted by gas,
manufactured on the
premises. The clock imported
from Boston cost $1,000 and
another $•1,000 was spent to
have it installed. Now it is
silent.
During recent years, the
hall has remained closed
'beca'use of stringent health
and safety requirements.
Interest in•the open house will
help the owners and the
Cardno Hall Conservancy
Committee assess the
possibilities for future use of
the hall.
The Festival City Tour-,
Train of Stratford, ,parky,
was recruited for the day to
transport those interested to
the hall's open house- and to
' the VanEgmond house. _
Brownies, Guides, Scouts and Cubs from Clinton and
Vanastra joined at the Vanastra Christian Church on
Sunday evening to hold a memorial service for the late
Olave, Lady Baden-Powell. Like many other groups
around the world who were paying their tributes to Lady
Powell, the local groups took part in a color march.

Citizens chose about the best
day when they set out for
Collingwood by bus on
Tuesday, September 27. The
weather man co-operated
well, turning off the rain
every time we left the bus.
Shopping round the pot-

made was fascinating,
revealing the really hard

will remain in our minds as
