Saturday will see an exciting time on our favorite street as the Bayview Leaside BIA merchants offer their very best and a lot of extras too. The street map at the top of the gallery locates entertainment for kids — bouncy castle, face painting, photo contest, balloon stand and snow cones. Check the Facebook page for what merchants are planning. Top centre, what a great picture of Eric Stickney with Leaside High School scholars Ethan Rajaratnam and Jane Eckler at the school’s convocation late in June. Ethan and Jane were honoured with the David Stickney Award presented to graduating students who meet the criteria of high proficiency in math, participation in team athletics and giving back to the community through volunteering. The award is named after Eric’s late dad, a much loved teacher at LHS. Top right is a reminder that the Thorncliffe Park Neighbors Night Out is Saturday. Lower left, this is Tuesday and the East York Farmer’s Market is underway until 2 p.m. at 850 Coxwell Ave. Lower right, the heritage Capitol Theatre at Yonge St. and Castlefield Ave. is part of a proposal to redevelop the corner. The developer, Madison Group, wants to retain the facade of the 1918 movie house.
