Centennial!

Report

i967 1967 »

Two big numbers in the Cen-
...lennial's national show are “on the
road” now and they have been
giving “smash hit" performances.
Attendance figures on the Con-
federation. Train can be described
as “peak capacity plus" and the
Armed Forces’ Military Tattoo,
which opened to the public at
Peterborough, Ontario, March 31-
April 1, has established its reputa-
tion for being a highly profes-
sional show that produces utta-
imous audience enthusiasm and
praise.

It's a major understatement to—

say that we at the Centennial Com-

mision are pleased by the success.

of these important “opening num-
bers” in the 1967 celebrations.

The Confederation Train started
its tour early in January at Vic-
toria where it received 58,000
visitors. By April 6, when it was
at Saskaoon on its eastward tour,
650,000 people had seen this color-
ful travelling exhibition.

Those in charge of the Con-
federation Train tour had estim-

. ated, last year, that about one and

a half million people would board
it. On the basis of daily crawds so
far they now predict a total of two
million. Unfortunately it is doubt-
fal we can stretch that figure more
since there is a physical, limit to
the number of people who can
pass through the train per day and
there must be a number of “no
show” days during the tour to al-
low for travelling time between
exhibit points and for maintenance.
and repairs.

The attendance figures are the

I like to, quote a wide-eyed rail-

on company time: “It’s marvellous.
I want my kids to see this, for
sure," ;

From Air Marshal to Petty Of-
ficer to Private, all menrbers of
the Armed Forces should be proud
of their’ Military Tattoo. The two
