M O N S T E R S A T T H E M A L L ] Sonia Holder grew up in Venezuela (studying Cervantes instead of Shakespeare) and worked there for 10 years designing logos, cheques, business forms and greeting cards, dreaming on getting hired by Hallmark one day. After graduating with a Fine Arts degree, she moved to Canada in 1987 and has been working as a designer in the production department of Metroland publications ever since. t e e m Sonia Holder ASSISTANT PRODUCTION MANAGER ] 31 | Thursday, November 3, 2016 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com Sonia acquires more books than she will ever be able to read and many more movies than she'll ever have time to watch. She's hoping to live to be a hundred to make a dent in her collections. Meanwhile she patiently waits for that call from Hallmark... All kidding aside, Sonia is very proud to be a Metroland employee.

Hundreds of local youths attended as the mall also provided entertainment.
