Spokesman for Berkeley's Centenary Committee Charles Jeffers said a Family Picnic at Clearwater Beach, St. David's is expected to have the highest attendance of all the events on the centenary calendar.

Activities at the July 19 picnic are scheduled to begin at 10 a.m.

"There will be fun and games all day long with stiff competition expected between Gold and Green (school sports) houses,'' Mr. Jeffers said.

And an outdoor concert at the Berkeley Institute was planned for August 23.
