第一次做自愿者 / Ontario Place

客人在我的店中制作招徕自愿者的宣传资料，于是我就顺便报了名。工作是Rosedale Mayfair 卖票。8：30am--10:30am 工作很轻松，全家人还被邀请参加几天后的烧烤聚餐。Rosedale 就是我所在的社区，是全多伦多房价最贵的街区。这里有很多豪宅都被政府列为古迹，不准随便改动。当然这里的居民都非常友善客气。

多伦多大部分电台都在附近，其中有个主持对我们的服务非常满意，给我们送来了8张Ontario Place的票。今天的天气可不像预报那样糟糕。他们玩得很好呢。


Mayfair returns to Rosedale

May. 11, 2006

Rosedale and Moore Park residents will celebrate 60 years of fun and revelry as Mayfair turns 60 tomorrow.

The 60th annual Mayfair will include midway rides, live entertainment, food, a bicycle parade, wacky hairdos and more. This year's theme - A Groovy '60s Mayfair - was selected to commemorate the six decades that the community has held the community festival.

"The '60s were such a fun time and since it was our 60th, it just seemed like the time was right," said Marjorie Booth, general manager of Mooredale House, the community organization supported by the funds raised at Mayfair events.

In keeping with the theme, event organizers are holding a costume contest in which participants can win prizes for the best astronaut, hippie, Austin Powers, Tina Turner or Beatles costume.

Mayfair will also include a marketplace, track and field events for kids, bingo games, a climbing wall and more. At 60 years of age, it is the oldest community festival in Toronto.

"It started out as something small for the community and it's amazing to see how much it's grown," Booth said. "It seems like every year it gets bigger and better and brings in more people from outside the area, including people who grew up in the area and have fond memories of the earlier festivals."

Mayfair will take place from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Rosedale Park, north of Roxborough Drive and east of Mount Pleasant Road. Local children will head down to the park en masse with a mini parade starting at Moorevale Park, near Heath Street East and east of Mount Pleasant, at 8:15 a.m.
