Ontario Place's newest at-
traction, a plastic skating rink
60 feet above Lake Ontario,
opens this week, It is the first
installation of its kind in North
America.
Situated on the roof of Pod 1
of the Pavilion, "Sun Skate"
will accommodate up to 100
skaters at a time on its 5,000
square foot surface. Made of an
all-weather plastic called Sun-
tec, "Sun Skate" gives visitors
a unique opportunity to skate
throughout the summer ,while
overlooking Toronto's
lakeshore.
Eric McMillan, designer of
Ontario' "Place's popular
'Children's' 'Village;' 'calls his
'; achievementte "Imagine looking up and seeing
people skating in the sun --
suspended above the lake --
that's the impression you'll
get."
The rink is enclosed by a
translucent convex wall with
authentic tractor seats placed
around the outside.

SOciety met Sunday evening at
the home of the president Tom
Penhale, to finalize plans for

Friday evening prior to the fair,
a bingo will be held in the
auditorium of the community
centre and the public may view
the exhibits downstairs.
SaturdaA activities begin
with a big parade at 1 p.m. and
it was noted that judging from
inquiries it was going to be one
Of the biggest parades ever. The
Bayfield Step Dancing Group
will give a square dancing
demonstration. CFPL's Pirie
Mitchell and his dog Peaches
will be on hand to host the dogsb
beauty pageant.
The fair, which keeps to an
old time theme, will have many
exhibits of bygone days plus ac-
tivities like the log sawing con-
test, horseshoe pitching and
ladies4 nail driving contest.
There will be a threshing
demonstration where anyone

sheaves. A tug of war match
will highlight the afternoon in--
volving the campsites in the
area.
Pony and horse racing and
mini-bike racing are set for the
younger set and a midway for
all to enjoy. The committee
agreed it would be a full after-
noon of activities.
Mrs. Ethel Yeo, president of
the ladies division, reported
from her group and the large
list of prizes she had ac-
cumulated from different com-
panies and interested sources.
These aren't listed in the prize
list so winners are in for many
extra s and the prizes are ex-
cellent,
The meeting adjourned on a
motion by Allan Yates. Tom
Penhale showed a film of a
previous fair.
PIONEER PARK
The Bayfield Pioneer Park
Association scored a success
last Saturday when two plays
produced by the Lambton
Youth Theatre, which the
association sponsored, were•
presented in the Park. The af-
ternoon play for the children
was a thrilling new experience
for many of the youngsters and
an amusing entertainment for
the parents in, attendance,
The Association could not
have picked a more perfect day
for the adult play that followed
at 6:30 p.m. The rose tinted
sunset over a placid lake dotted
with sailboats, and the
magnificent cloud effects to the
south and east formed a spec-
tacular backdrop for the out-
door theatre.
The production, a period
play, in costume was well
received by all those that atten-
ded.
An exceptionally clear red
sunset over a calm lake was the
setting for the "Band Concert"
in the Park on Monday
evening. The Laketown Band
of Goderich under the leader-
ship of Charles Kalbfleisch, son
of Professor and Mrs. H. Kalb-
Misch, presented a selection of
musical scores that were
greatly enjoyed by a most ap-
preciative gathering,
It is surprising the number of
people who have expressed
regret at having missed these
events through not knowing
that they were being presented,
Unfortunately, some people,
even if they are fortunate
enough to purchase a copy of
the News-Record in the tourist
season do not refer to the
Coming Events box of this
paper.
