If you need a break from your shopping expedition
try dropping in at one of the restaurants. You will
be delighted by tne fine cuisine available, and don’t
forget to look for specials added to the menu.

TALKING TURKEY

It's turkey time for many families. Last-minute
shopping for the star of your culinary event may
result in disappointment. It may be a good idea to
order your turkey early.

North Vancouver resident Joanne Hutlet is
convinced that Edcemont is the best place anywhere
to get turkey. Says Hutlet: “I always purchase my
turkey in the village. The meat is the best, the price
is good, and the service is really friendly.”

Produce is also a main attraction at the village.
“We have people coming from all over becuase they
know about the quality and selection here,” says a
member of the merchants association.

In Edgemont Village vou will find an unhurried,
relaxed atmosphere. It’s a place where you can
browse, enjoy the decorations and feel the spirit of
an old-fashioned Christmas.
