Large crowds attend July 1 celebrations Organizers of the July 1 celebrations in Port Perry, say they were pleased and surprised with the large crowds which turned out for the concerts, fireworks and street dance to mark Canada's 115th birthday. Miriam Price, president of the Scugog Chamber of Commerce, which organized the events said afterwards she could not recall such a large crowd for a public event in Port Perry. Estimates of the numbers range from 1500 to 2500. But the one sure thing is that people seemed in a festive mood as they enjoyed the events under perfect summer evening weather conditions. The evening got underway with music and song by the Dixie Land Jazz Band and the Port Perry High School Jazz Choir in Palmer Park. Shortly after dusk, the night sky was filled with the light and sounds of a fireworks display. And the festivities would down with a street dance featuring "Cadillac." Mrs. Price told the Star that in light of the response to this year's July 1 fes- tivities, it is likely the local Chamber of Commerce will plan some events for next year. It was an evening for all kinds of special events, including a wedding on board a cruiser moored at the Port Perry waterfront. Mr. and Mrs. Larry Anderson of Oshawa tied the knot and when the ceremony was over they said they decided on this setting for their marriage because both are avid boaters and enjoy Lake Scugog. Prince Albert to get development Now that the Prince Albert hamlet plan has been completed, residential sub- division activity in that community is expected to pick up this fall and next spring.
