To accommodate visitors, two huge tents will be erect- ed in the tented city, each having a seating capacity of 550 people. A highly skilled master of ceremonies will be in charge each day to provide continuity to the shows and create a friendly atmosphere. The show will commence each morning at 10 a.m. with music and song. This part of the program will be provided by local school choirs. Further entertainment of this nature will be provided periodically throughout the daily programs by pro- vincially recognized talent groups.

They include the Gadabouts, Sweet Adelines, Parr Christie Singers, Bar- bershop Quartet all of King- ston and the Swinging Sixties of Gananoque.
