You need to have boots that are waterproof. Since this is a village that looks as if it existed in the 19th century, none of the roads or paths are paved. You need to have hats, mitts or gloves and scarf. To find out more about Upper Canada Village, check http://www.uppercanadavillage.com/night.htm

will be able to use in the afternoon or on our return from Upper Canada Village.

than $10.00 for the gift exchange. This is only for the students, not the adults.

ready to do this. Bring your cameras, memory sticks, etc.

a bed with someone, bring a sleeping bag. Adults will be accommodated as requested.

If you want to join us for supper and festivities at UCV and stay overnight, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can book the rooms and the meals. The bus to take us to Upper Canada Village will only take 46 people so some of you may need to be prepared to drive.
