‘This photo likely depicts one of the floats that was entered in the Geraldton Gay Ninety Jamboree parade. The celebration took
place the Civic Holiday weekend – August, 1950. Most of the floats in the parade included men and women dressed up in old-time
costumes. Many of the ladies carried parasols!!

Mr. Mascotto on the left, Front center Mr. Benny Pressman, Mayor, Policeman is John Webb, my dad.
I don't recall who the rest of the people are. Could the man on the right be Mr. Marino?
Doug Brydges...Yes, that would be Joe Marino. I remember back in 1969, Joe and son Ted bought a
new GTO Judge (from Sinclair Motors) which had its own distinct orange paint and
"Judge" decal package. Joe used it for his trips to Thunder Bay and had it re-...
painted a dark green... he didn't like the orange and "Judge" decals as it made him
look like a young hot-rodder (lol). Ted had the Judge rebuilt from the ground up in
the 90s and back to its original Judge paint and decals. I think Ted still has it stashed
away somewhere.
Didn't your dad own the camp at Sturgeon River (later owned by Ben Nelson of Jellicoe)
after retiring? My dad used to drive out there to visit on weekends with me as his side-kick.
I seem to remember my dad bought an old Willys Jeep wagon from your dad (early 60s?)
and he used to call your dad "Jack".
Ron Adams... Yes 'Jack' Webb is what we knew him by! We had Rock Point Resort just down the highway
from him. He used to buy mininows from us quite alot. Very nice person.
Anna McKenzie...Yes Doug, my dad's nickname was Jack. He and my mom owned Sturgeon River Resort and
they did have a Willys Jeep. I loved driving that vehicle. My mom learned to drive in it. By the
way, did you buy my little Hillman from me?
Doug Bridges...Was it a blue Hillman? If so, then yes, dad bought it as my first car. I remember a few of us took
a ride out to Macleod Park in it (May 1966 maybe) between exams. The coil wire fell off and none
of us knew anything under the hood. Had to hitch-hike back to town, got a ride with Bill and
Roy Sinclair, they saved the day and we made it to our next exams with a minute to spare. :)
The lady in this photo is Mrs. Annie Cushnie, who, along with Mrs. Minnie Garton, established
the Cushnie-Garton Dry Cleaners on First Avenue North (near Daneff’s) in March of 1946.
During her time in Geraldton she was very active in the civic affairs of both Geraldton and
Longlac. She served as a member of the Geraldton Board of Education & Town Council, as
an executive member of the Geraldton-Longlac Hospital Board and the Northwestern
Ontario Chamber of Commerce.
She was also an active member of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, and served on the Board
of Managers. Annie and her husband Charles left Geraldton ca. late Nov. of 1957.

I believe it was the summer after Grade 11. The shop class at the high
school made the bulding and somehow got it out to the highway.
