Surrey pioneer and teacher Mary Jane Shannon (played by Sara Holt) welcomes kids to class – on ‘July 7, 1906’ – at the Historic Stewart Farm on Saturday during the city’s 2012 Pioneer Fair.

Below, T.J. Sullivan, Surrey’s reeve from 1910 to 1921 (played by Vince Metcalfe), greets visitors.

The Surrey Heritage Services presentation had five actors from the Frontier Tale Blazers recreate the lives of early Surrey settlers.

The Frontier Tale Blazers will also visit the Fusion Festival at Holland Park on July 21 and 22.
