face painting for kids who came to see the picture.

GENNY LE BLANC , GLENN BARKHOUSE AND STAFF Paramount, St. John
All of the local daycare centres within walking distance of the theatre were contacted and theatre staff helped plan an outing to 101 Dalmatians. Mini posters were given to the centres for display and children from the centres were given entry forms. Glenn was also able to obtain display space for 101 Dalmatians in several stores in a nearby mall.
JOHN PEDERSON, STEPHEN YUEN AND STAFF Richport and Richmond Centre
Three malls located near these theatres were approached by John and Stephen. Pet stores, toy stores, and children’s clothing stores all took part in a puppy hunt. Children who visited the theatres were given entry forms and a list of locations in which to search for the puppies. At the end of the search they should have had 101
puppies recorded and the locations where they found them. Lobby displays for the movie and decorated entry boxes were placed in both theatres.
DAN BOYD AND STAFF Capitol, Kitchener
Dan rented a dalmatian costume and became part of the activities of a local Sidewalk Sale. He handed out flyers about the contest, inviting children to enter at the theatre. The theatre lobby and contest entry boxes were decorated in a 101 Dalmatians motif.
CLIFF GALLANT, KAREN CRAIG AND STAFF Park Royal, Vancouver
The Park Royal entry boxes were done up as doghouses but Cliff, Karen and the staff were thinking ahead. They had the contestants drop their entries into boxes according to the entrant’s T-shirt size small, medium or large. It must have saved some time when it came to awarding the prizes.
JULIE AGNOLIN AND STAFF Devonshire Cinemas, Windsor
The lobby contained two large displays with paw prints on the carpet leading up to the entry boxes. Julie reports that the children loved following the tracks and counting the spots. The Devonshire had a colouring contest as well and Julie’s son accompanied her into the mall, dressed as a dalmatian. He was given the job of handing out the entry forms and Julic reports that his costume was a big hit. Entries in the colouring contest were put on display in the Devonshire. Another contest consisted of a "Guess The Number of Dog Biscuits" in a jar. Anyone purchasing a large soft drink
was given an entry form for this contest and the winner reccived a pass for four
to a local amusement park.
