Cowboys coming to Edgemont Village

THE EDGEMONT Village
Merchants Association will
host a day-long celebration in
the newly revitalized shopp-
ing centre.

Western Day, Saturday,
September 22, will feature a
community oriented festivity
with a cowboy theme. The
stores and shopkeepers will
be decked out in western garb
and the entire day accen-
tuated with bonanza events
intended to be enjoyed by the
entire family.

The gala begins with a
decorated bicycle parade in
conjunction with the local
schools. The post-adolescent
kids have not been forgotten
however — the cycle event

will also include an adult
category.

The day will continue with
clowns from a_ service
association distributing
bushels of apples,
culminating in a Square

Dance presentation put on by
the Swinging Singles and the
Village Squares in which the
general public will be en-
couraged to participate. This
will take place on Woodbine
Drive which will be closed to
traffic during the event, as
will Lower Highland
Boulevard.

Corn on the cob will be of-
fered at a _ bargain price
courtesy of a new business
venture to the community,
Village Produce. Numerous
craft displays which wiil

delight the young and old
alike will be held on the
Village sidewalks.

There will be a dog
costume party sponsored by
Paws & Claws Pantry. The
public is invited to bring their
pooches small and large. The
dogs will be judged on most
beautiful, most original and
most amusing costumes.
Large dogs will be judged
separately from smaller
breeds and several prizes will
be awarded.

Individual stores and shops
will be holding a wide range
of sales and specials that will
not only allow shoppers to
enjoy the celebration but
augment back to school ar-
ticles missed in the end of
August rush.

The Village Merchants

Association is hosting this ex- -

travaganza as an ongoing
process which culminated in
the fresh, new outlook the
Village has taken on,
courtesy of the Downtown
Revitalization Project under-
taken by the provincial
government. This project
which follows the June
Grand Opening attended by
an estimated 5,000 people of
all ages, is a continuation of a
process to encourage
residents to patronize a uni-
que community-oriented
shopping centre which offers
a complete range of stores
and services for all your
shopping needs.
