Wednesday was Ice Cream Day, as an old-fashioned ice cream truck came during the lunch hour for employ- ees to enjoy a cold treat. Thursday was the Cafeteria Carnival during the lunch hour with games such as redneck horseshoes, bean bag toss, a tricycle race, as well as a bake sale and prize raffle, where all mon- ey raised was donated to the Georgetown Bread Basket. Friday was Coffee and Timbits, serving coffee and timbits to em- ployees in the cafeteria. Saturday was the Family BBQ and Carnival at the Croatian Centre. Bouncy castles, games, tug-o-war, a DJ, face painting, balloon clowns, and a BBQ was the order of the day. Mold-Masters became the first com- pany to exclusively manufacture hot run- ner systems. It was started by Jobst and Waltraud Gellert, a husband and wife duo, in a small shop in Toronto in 1963. The Gellerts later moved the company to the facility at 233 Armstrong Ave in Georgetown, in the early 1970s. The Gel- lerts contributed locally to the communi- ty, including substantially to the Gellert Community Centre and Mold-Masters SportsPlex, which bear their name. Mold-Masters has grown to have over 1,750 employees, with offices and manu- facturing facilities reaching every corner of the globe. Mold-Masters was recent- ly acquired by U.S. plastics machinery company, Milacron, in June 2013.
