Parks open for winter activity The Minister respon- sible for Parks Canada, Warren Allmand, an- nounced Christmas week that facilities had been been made ready for an expected two million visitors to Canada's 28 National Parks. Winter facilities in Georgian Bay Islands National Park allow for snowmobiling, snows- hoeing, cross-country skiing and camping. Georgian Bay Islands also offers marked trails for snowshoeing, snowmobiling and cross- country skiing. Snowmobilers' are instructed to register with park offices before setting out on_ the designated trails. Par- ticipants who fail to register or* who wander from the trails are sub- ject to fine. Winter visitors might also participate in other sports as _ toboganning, skating and ice fishing, to name a few. Campers are reminded that food, clothing and equipment for winter camping are very dif- ferent from those in summer. It is a good idea to check with the park superintendent before setting out to make sure you have all the necessary supplies.

HOSKINS BAKERY -- ELMVALE These junior voices were pure and silvery, and their musical discipline remarkable. Working without music, the boys were totally attentive to their con- ductor. The result was perfect diction, and chillingly impressive dynamics. The tenor and_ bass choir provided a more robust sound-mellow, rich and entirely pleasing. The Chorus of The Shepherds and Kings from Ahmal and the Night Visitors was especially im- pressive-precisely sung, and again remarkable for its clear diction. They completed their portion of the program with a collection of modern Christmas songs, and the familiar Do You Hear What I hear. The young singers began the second half of the program by grouping themselves antiphonally for Lift Up Your Heads, O Ye Gates. It was a thrilling, soaring beginning for the section which included What Cheer, The Rocking Carol I Saw Three Ships, For Unto Us A Child Is Born, A Little Child So Lovely, Noel We Sing, O Holy Night, and a Christmas Medley. The audience joined with the choir too in two carols, O Come All Ye Faithful and Silent Night.
