__Title__a Alliston Snowmobile Club Radar Run 2008
After a few cancellations due to a lack of snow, the Alliston and District Snowmobile club held its annual radar at club's headquarters at the Thompson farm on County Rd. 6 and the 3rd line west of Everett over the weekend. The Saturday event drew riders who raced against the radar gun for top speed in several classes including a track for vintage sleds. A new record was set as snowmobilers tore up the powder. Daryl Cuttel entered his Polaris into the open class and rode it to a new record of 196 km/h. A total of 92 riders turned out for the event. Other first-place finishes included Ken Love, vintage class, 112 km/h; Ernie Pivetta four-stroke class, 155 km/h; Cris Heikurinen, 1,000cc class, 163 km/h; Tyler Linton, 900cc class, 157 km/h; Ryan Dunn, 800cc class, 163 km/h; Corey Howard, 700cc, 155 km/h, Chris Andrisni, 600 cc class, 156 km/h; Gary Gallaugher, 500cc class, 135 km/h.

__Title__a Fox Jaw and Bass Lions at Groundswell
Call 'em beatniks, call 'em modern day hippies, call 'em whatever you want, the Bass Lions said they ain't scared to make big beats and acoustic guitars into bed-fellows and they ain't scared to sing, sing, sing in harmony, in brassy choirs, or all alone in rock 'n' roll, baritone and cracked falsetto. That proved true as they rocked Groundswell Coffeehouse last weekend with Fox Jaw and entertained a packed house. [more]

__Title__a Sunnidale Winterama 2008
It always snows for Sunnidale Winterama, but this year, organizers must have been getting a little worried as Mother Nature took it down to the wire last week. About 15 cm of the white stuff fell Friday, just in time for the weekend festivities in the tiny hamlet of New Lowell northwest of Angus. Hundreds of revellers turned out for the event which featured games, contests, and a lot of cold, hard fun. [more]


__Title__a Alliston Rotary Night Lit Parade
The Alliston Rotary Club's first-ever Night Lit Santa Claus parade was a hit with close to 40 brightly lit floats making their way down Victoria Street all the way out to the west end of town. The parade took about an hour to pass any given spot alongside the curb, which was just long enough given the -10 C temperatures combined with a windchill that made it feel more like -15 C. Despite the cold, thousands lined the route and took in everything from lit up gingerbread houses to live camels and reindeer. Freelance photographer Stephen Hayward took a ton of great photos.
