On July 3rd, the weather- man did not cooperate as well and the area picnic was moved from the Oshawa Park to the arena. However, the crowd was large and a good program was presen- ted. On August 26th joined by some Seniors from Uxbridge and Blackstock, two bus loads travelled to Ganan- oque where we took a three hour cruise of the Thousand Islands, stopping for supper near Picton on the return trip.
