WOODSTOCK - The City of Woodstock has received a special honour from the Ontario Branch of the Lifesaving Society.

It presented the city with the Scarborough Cup on Friday, April 12th. This award is always given to the municipality with the largest lifesaving program for a population ranging from 10,000 to 50,000.
