Civic Holiday Monday Explained

If you live in Ontario you will know that Monday August 1st is the Civic Holiday Monday. Most people have no clue why this holiday even exists. It started many years ago in London, ON when the merchants in the Richmond Row shopping district decided to collectively close for the first Monday in August to take there families for a picnic. The holiday has since caught on and has since spread throughout Ontario.

If you are planning to celebrate Civic Holiday Monday with a picnic you can either do it with an old fashion blanket or try it out off the ground with one of our handy folding picnic tables. They fold up and easily fit in your cars back seat or trunk.

Great Weather for Installing Security Cameras

With the nice clear weather we are having now is a great time to install outdoor security cameras to protect the outside of your business, church, home, apartment building or any other property you might own or care about. Let's face it there you don't want to be installing security cameras in the rain (it's not safe being on a tall metal ladder in the lightning storm) or during the winter when it's bitterly cold outside.

Forest City Surplus Canada carries a wide variety of security cameras for Canadians. We have discount indoor outdoor security cameras starting at just $39.95 to higher end cameras which are built with a fan to cool the camera in hot conditions and heat the camera turning it into a heated security camera during cold winter weather temperatures of -30 degrees Celsius.

Forest City Surplus has one of the largest selections of security cameras in London, Ontario Canada and has years of experience in the sale of them. Come on in and speak to the expert staff today and get advice on how you can better protect your property.

New Airsoft Guns Canada

It's Tim the Forest City Surplus webmaster here. My assistant Dustin and I have been hard at work over the last month doing our best to try to improve our airsoft gun and accessory section.

We believe we now have one of the best selection of airsoft guns in Canada on our website.

Recently we have added low cost airsoft guns like the all black Mossberg Tactical airsoft gun kits, to higher end guns like the M14 Socom Special Ops Full Metal Airsoft Assault Rifles and a new Firepower SAR10 CO2 Bolt Action Airsoft Sniper Rifles.

We also have been working on adding more airsoft accessories like the Taurus PT 92 Spare Green Gas Magazines, smart airsoft battery chargers, a wider selection of airsoft BBs like the Burst Fire 0.25 Gram Airsoft BBs 4000 round bags which are designed to work with AEG airsoft guns, 9.6 volt and 8.4 volt large and 8.4 volt small airsoft batteries.

We haven't left out you Canadian airsoft sidearm fans. We have a large selection of all black airsoft pistols like the Sig Sauer X-Five P226, CO2 powered all metal Taurus PT 92 and the .50 Desert Eagle green gas powered with blowback action.

We believe these new additions will make us a major player in the Canadian airsoft guns and airsoft accessories market.

Don't forget if your in the London Ontario area to drop on by so you can try out many of these airsoft guns before you buy in our 28 foot airsoft shooting range.
