Wow, what a day July 21 st was! We held our first "Kendal Summerfest 2001" last Saturday, and it was a huge success. If I were to pick just one attraction that people had the most fun at, it would have to be the dunk tank . A steady stream of people people lined up to dunk anyone who was willing to get in the tank. It seems that Jason Kearley and Devon Robinson were the two people who dunked so many of us. Gord Robinson, one of our sponsors wasn't on that seat too long before he. was dunked. A great way to cool off on a hot day. The younger children were thrilled with the Jumping Castle and lots of prizes were had at the Duck Pond. The tug of war was played so many times that everyone Rosalyn Lawton sneaks a peek in the Stereoscope, part of the Clarke Museum and Archive's display. display.
