Santa Visits Lac du Bonnet Parade in Christmas Cheer
Saturday afternoon in Lac du Bonnet drew many youngsters as Santa Claus arrived by plane and toured town. Ramsay McIntosh hitched a bush toboggan and, with Jim around the town duck, delivered Santa to stores while residents decorated cars and offered gifts. Children posted letters to Santa in a grand sleigh box as the Board of Trade led the event with Frank Brown and Ken McCuaig coordinating the parade and activities.
