By arranging a community exposition and a giant fun-filled July 1. The exposition currently planned for July 1 will run from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Pen Curling Club and will feature clubs, individuals and local businesses explaining what it is they do. This is the first year for the exposition and it already has over 20 different exhibits. If you or your children are looking for a "keep fit"' activity, then several of the displays will give you an idea. While you're there, you can even watch the demonstrations of skills of those already registered. Sports fans will find the taxidermy display fascinating and the expert on hand can give you advice on costs, procedures and even artistic mounting. There will be displays and booths selling new and used clothing and jewellery plus books, balloons, pastry and even a flea market. Several craftspeople will be there with their collections of handmade dolls, crochet work and hand knits. If it's painting that interests you, be sure to plan on a leisurely chat with local artists who will be demonstrating and selling their sketches, oil paintings, water colours and photographs. The local branch of the Ontario Field Naturalists will be having a very interesting large display that promises to interest the entire family. These reflect only a few of the displays and sales booths that will be set up inside the curling club. There are still spaces available inside and ---- Penetanguishene Summer Festival Plenty of reasons for town to show off outside the Curling Club for your participation.

Paquette is the pioneer of Franco- Ontarian music, having started in the mid-1970's In the early years he alternated at concerts between his own material and traditional songs, but he has since moved towards a selection of material that includes folk, rock and jazz. Les Sortileges have been in existence since 1973. They have performed as far away from Montreal as Isreal. Les Sortileges had a part in the opening of the XX1 Olympiad in Montreal in 1976. The group has also danced in England, France, Yugoslavia, Greece, and the United States. Ragout is a group of three women who choose to perform in their free time both traditional francophone songs and old songs with new lyrics. They are best known in Toronto. On that same day, there will be a special beef barbecue outdoors sponsored by Ontario Hydro and the entire family is urged to come down to the curling club early to enjoy the exposition, the auction, the beef barbecue and a whole day of free live entertainment. The community auction will begin at 11 a.m. with auctioneer Bob Rumney on hand. Among the list of new items to be auctioned is a gas barbecue, meals for two and four, hair stylings, automotive services, a cabinet television and even food vouchers. _The list of used items donated continues to mount. You can buy hens, a rooster, a ski, sink, a swing set, chairs, hooks, dishes and lots more super treasures. The auction is a community event with the funds returning to community projects so your par- ticipation is greatly appreciated. There is still a need for more items so call the Chamber of Commerce office at 549-2232 to arrange pick-up or drop-off times for your items.
