Charles, Patricia Delves as Daphne, Robert
Latimer as Bill, Gerald Lenton as Timothy,

wait to see it along with the Playhouse au-
dience," says Artistic Director, Steven
Schipper.

Dungannon Fair to have two parades

ly what Dungannon's 128th Fair is
offering.

Children's Pet Parade will take place at 7
p.m. at the Dungannon Agricultural Park.
Pre-schoolers and Elementary school kids
will have a chance to show their favourite
pet or pets but each animal must be
suitably caged or leashed.
Formerly, pets, poultry and goats were
judged and shown on the Saturday of the
fair but this year, all are to- be entered in
the Friday night Pet Parade. A total of 22
classes will be judged With a prize for first
and second in each class but the best part
• is„that every child who shows a pet will
receive a gift.
The classes in the Pet Parade are: 1.
Largest dog 2. Smallest dog; 3. Best
costumed dog; 4. Largest cat.; 5. Most ap-
pealing kitten; 6. Best costumed cat/kit-
ten; 7. Best solid coloured rabbit; 8. Best

Fair is the main one, leaving the United
Church corner at 12 noon. Sat., Aug. 15.
Participants are asked to be in place Ivell
before 11:30 a.m. for judging.
A parade entry is a great way to adver-
tise a business or a coming event or to en-
courage though n a particular issue. It
can show that your organizatin or club is
actively involved in your community or it
can say thanks for any number of reasons.
A family can proudly proclaim its
heritage. A particularly prized possession
can be displayed. A special talent can be
used for entertainment. Whatever the
reason, taking part in a parade is a lot of
fun.
Besides the children's classes, there are
also: Most Humorous Float, Most Original
Float, School Entry, Best Organization or
Club entry, Best Vintage Vehicle and Best
Pony and Cart -or Polly and Rider.
Please register early at the Dungannon

included in the judging or call 529-7974 or
529-7972 for more information.
Take your choice of parades - either the
Children's Pet Parade or the Fair Parade
or enter both! After all, two parades have
to be twice as much fun as one! ,.
