Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Out of bounds: A sunbather makes the most of fenced-off Woodbine beach; temporarily closed to swimmers while crews dump tonnes of sand over the next two weeks to fill in a deadly underwater drop-off. Signs (inset) have been posted warning of the drop-off; scene of one drowning and several near drownings this summer. Buoys marking the hazard are needed; some say.
