"The Town of Bradford salutes the 1977 Salad Festival and warmly welcome visitors to the Heart of the Salad Country. Mayor Roy Gordon, Councillors Zyg Fenik, Reeve Ken Wood, John Zima, Deputy Reeve Milt Hambly, Rick Wright, and Clerk Treasurer Miss Margaret Davey."

"The 1977 version of the Salad Festival will be held from July 10 to July 17 this year, publicity committee chairman George Allison announced this week. Planning had been underway for almost two months and several new events, as well as the popular regular events will be in the program. The midway, the beef barbeque, cabaret and salad feast will return this year. Mr. Allison stated that a joint meeting of the management committee and representatives of the various participating groups was held recently. Rick Wright, last year's salad feast chairman, has resigned stating that other commitments would make his participation difficult. Lyn Bowmaster has been chosen as chairman for this year's festival. Mrs. Bowmaster said the task will be made much easier as a result of the detailed records maintained over the last two years. She said she is looking forward to receiving the co-operation of the groups who participated in last year's events."

"The town of Bradford bulged at the seams last week as an estimated 20,000 people jammed into the community to make an unprecedented success of the annual Bradford Salad Festival. From last Wednesday night, through Sunday, every event scheduled by the Salad Festival Committee surpassed organizers' highest hopes. Visitors and residents alike consumed hundreds of pounds of fresh salad, sliced their way through a ton of beef, sipped on soft drinks and other refreshments, danced til the wee hours of the morning, and generally paid tribute to the greatest growing area in Ontario."

"This year the West Gwillimbury chapter of the Imperial Order - Daughters of the Empire is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Last Saturday at the Bradford Community Centre several hundred people enjoyed the Red, White and Blue Ball. Several graduates of BDHS have furthered their education in nursing, hairdressing and community college with monetary aid from the IODE. In addition to its own activities the chapter cooperates with many local organizations in promoting and supporting many deserving projects around the area."
