This summer in Toronto will be busier than usual because of the PanAm and the Para-PanAm games around town.  The PanAm games have just started and the Para PanAm games will wrap up on 15 Aug.  Smack bang in the middle of this period will be the ever-popular annual Toronto Carnival which will take place on the first week-end of August.  As part of the Carnival event, Saints will be holding, as usual, its own annual celebration of this occasion with two important events.

The first event is the Caribjam Dance which will be held on Friday 31st July from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. with the music for non-stop dancing being provided by the two popular DJs, DJ Paul and DJ Get Busy.   Please note that the venue has been changed from the last few years and, this year, will be the Pickering Recreation Complex, 1867 Valley Farm Road, North of Hwy 401 between (East of) Liverpool Road and (West of) Brock Road, South of Kingston Road (Hwy 2).  The recommended dress-code is “Caribbean Elegance”.  A cash bar will be available for the standard mixed drinks (e.g. rum and coke, etc.), beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages.  A food bar will also be available, supplied by Royal Sound Catering (Rosie D’Ornellas) for your further enjoyment.

Tickets will be available for only $30 each, and can be obtained from your regular sellers or from any member of the Executive (see the flyer).  We are aware that many attendees come as part of groups, so we are offering a group sale of 10 tickets for the price of 9.

The second event is the annual Last Lap Lime which wraps up the Carnival celebrations on Monday 3rd August, the AugustMonday holiday.  This is the 20th Anniversary of this event, and will be held again at the Woodbridge Fairgrounds, 100 Porter Ave., Woodbridge (Kipling and Hwy 7) from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.    Tickets are $20 each at the gate BUT, if you buy them BEFORE the event, the cost is only $10 each.  Children under 12 years will have free admittance.  These tickets are also available from your regular sellers or from any member of the Executive (see the flyer).

If you plan to attend either or both of these events, you are advised to order your tickets NOW, especially for Caribjam as there is an attendance restriction due to the size of the hall.  DON’T WAIT!  DO IT NOW!

Have a warm, safe, and happy summer!
