Presented by the Seugog Shores Historical So- ciety in the High School Au- ditorium on the evening of March 10th, the programme featured some delightful lo- eal talent. The audience, themselves veterans of The Great Snow of 1971, were able to appre- ciate the "snowbound" theme which went like this: Grand- ma and Grandpa and the fa- mily, including the classic maiden aunt, Mom, Dad, and the hired girl, were whilling away a winter evening in the parlour. Father (Norm Wat- son in spats) played the organ with tremendous style. Mo ther (Jean Kennedy) sang for Grandpa. Suddenly there was the stomping of many boots and an invasion of snow bound travellers. Soon the parlour walls bulged, but the family and all their visitors were resourceful Victorians, used to entertaining them. selves in games and song and dance. Before long the audi- ence became part of the scene, too, singing "When You and I were Young, Maggie" & wondering where everyone was going to sleep. The snow not only evoked the past but also provided a perfect showpiece for some of the "finds" of the Histori- cal Society. Grandma, play- ed with splendid aplomb by Haze! Slemmon, flourished a brass ear trumpet which was undoubtedly a status symbol in its day. Grandpa (Mark Reeves) rocked in his favour- ite chair and read froma) a copy of the "North Ontario Observer" published in Port Perry in the last century During the evening feather fans fluttered provocatively, and several men |swaddied in fur coats that Prime Minister Trudeau | would be quick to admire arrived |% The first victims of the snow were Jack Dowson, Ken Dowson, and Larry Kendall, their hair parted in the mid- dle and combed back slick & shiny. These dashing young fellows with their snappy vests soon discovered that Father (That's Norm Watson) could sing lead in Barber- shop. So they were away. "The Nursery Rhyme Song" was a perfect choice for this group with its obvious sense of fun. One of the highlights of the evening occurred when Aunt Jean, played with just the righ self-conscious dignity by Jean Nodwell, was persu- aded to read the poem "John Mark".
