On
Sunday July 1st over 50 volunteers from the GGSCF took part in
the Canada Day celebrations by taking part in the parade in Scarborough.
The parade starts from the old Scarborough Town Centre and goes
along Brimley Road from Ellesmere Avenue to Lawrence Avenue, a
distance of about 2 km. This was the 5th year for the GGSCF in
taking part in this parade. Sophia, the organizer of the GGSCF
participation this year, was very happy as more volunteers came
out and also there were more spectators than last year. This meant
children/youth performed the gathka, others did bhangra in Punjabi
costumes, other handed out red and white balloons, and some handed
out candy to children along the route. The event was much enjoyed
by all present and is a good way of showing our pride of Canada
