Throwback Thursday: Let's visit gym class from 1939

It's not like any phys. ed. class we ever had

Last week, city council voted eight to five in favour of submitting a bid to host the 2021 Canada Summer Games here in Greater Sudbury.

In honour of this bold move, we dug up some old footage from the Greater Sudbury Archives depicting what Phys. Ed. looked like back in 1939 for this week’s episode of Throwback Thursday. It doesn’t look like any gym class we ever had.

We also gave it a bangin’ soundtrack. So turn up your speakers and enjoy!

As Canada celebrates its 150th birthday this year, Sudbury.com is honouring local contributions to that legacy with weekly historical videos released, fittingly, on Throwback Thursdays.
