In this week’s photo: Port Sydney beach is a popular spot in the summer, but you may not have seen it from this view. Can you guess the location and the date? (Photo courtesy of Muskoka Heritage Place, Clarke Collection.)

Last week we shared this photo with you:
Bryan Boothby knew that the King George Theatre became our local bowling alley. “I remember working there setting up bowling pins for those playing a game. I was paid 5 cents per game for Five Pin and 10 cents per game setting up 10 Pins & Duck Pins. This was my summer job when I was 12 years old. I could also bowl free when we weren’t busy. And I remember the french fries were delicious at the bowling alley. Sometimes I would help peel potatoes and dice them.”
Looking at Town Dock in early 50s . Very shallow at that time.
