CANADIAN TEEN CELEBRITY JORDAN FRANCIS ASKS CANADIAN KIDS TO SUBMIT THEIR FAVOURITE HOMETOWN DESTINATIONS FOR CBC’S “CROSS COUNTRY FUN HUNTâ€
Canadian kids aged 16 and under have the chance to showcase themselves and their towns or neighbourhoods in an interactive and real-life journey celebrating the youth, culture and geography of this country, for the new CBC television and interactive series “Cross Country Fun Hunt.†Kids can log onto http://www.cbc.ca/kids/games/funhunt/ and upload cool photos and homemade videos about themselves and where they live. Then, beginning in early July, Canadian teen heartthrob Jordan Francis (“Camp Rock 2,†“Connor Undercoverâ€) and the “Cross Country Fun Hunt†crew hit the road for the ultimate cross-Canada road trip – stopping to visit several of the destinations kids have put on the map. Kids will show Jordan all the fun things they do in their hometowns. Produced by Apartment 11 Productions, “Cross Country Fun Hunt†airs on CBC’s school aged programming block on Saturdays this fall.
As a kid, what do you love the most about your place? What everyday fun do you and your friends have that you think is special to where you live? Is there a super fun or unique activity people do in your town? An amazing natural wonder? Or is it home to a restaurant which creates a special local dish? Kids can go online to create custom profiles and nominate these fun destinations. Kids can put their destinations on the map with a short video and/or photos of themselves and the friends they want to do these fun activities with. On top of that, they will be able to check out and browse all of the videos and creative content uploaded by other kids all across the country.
When the road trip begins this summer, kids can get in the virtual driver’s seat and vote online to help Jordan decide which places to visit as he heads across the country, watching webisodes of the epic adventure unfold day by day. Each destination will be a dot on the interactive “Cross Country Fun Hunt†virtual map which will be open for all to explore. Kids won’t miss a beat as they follow Jordan’s van on the map in real time via GPS tracking. In the fall, Jordan’s epic “Cross Country Fun Hunt†will be turned into a CBC television series which will end with an awesome grand finale concert with Jordan and his friends in the neighbourhood or town that gets voted “the funnest place in Canada!â€
Actor, singer and dancer Jordan Francis is a triple threat whose previous credits include the role of young Simba in the Broadway version of The Lion King, starring roles in “Camp Rock,†“Camp Rock 2,†and “Connor Undercover,†and performances on the “Jonas Brothers World Tour.†Jordan also composes his own music.

PAWNATHON CANADA RETURNS TO HISTORY TELEVISION FOR A SECOND SEASON
How much is that rescued piece of artwork by Homer Watson worth? What about that 1979 Les Paul guitar? Find out exactly how much cash these items command in Pawnathon Canada season two (10 x 60) – a series in which Canadians showcase their prized heirlooms, antiques and memorabilia for a chance to cut a cash deal with the best dealers on TV – the Pawn Masters. This season features bigger cash sales, tougher negotiations, even more full-blown bidding wars and a brand-new Pawn Master, auctioneer Alison Ross of Victoria, BC. Produced by Suddenly SeeMore…Productions Inc., Pawnathon Canada season two premieres Wed., June 13 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on History Television.
Each episode of Pawnathon Canada features Canadians and their prized possessions – from historical Canadian art pieces to celebrity memorabilia – looking to share the history of their personal treasures and potentially sell them for cash. First, the items are examined by appraisers who determine which sellers will move on to meet the Pawn Masters – experts who dole out cash for coveted pieces. The most exceptional items receive a Platinum Ticket, which gives the seller a private audience with all five Pawn Masters at once. The Pawn Masters then assess the item with their combined knowledge, and the best pieces produce a full blown bidding war.Â
The Pawn Masters include Howard Green, H. Williams & Co., Toronto, ON; Douglas Stocks, Maus Park Antiques, Paris, ON; John Kantymir, Niagara Coin and Collectibles, Niagara Falls, ON; Mark Bradac, The Economy Exchange Pawn Shop, Windsor, ON; and the newest member, Alison Ross, Kilshaws Auctions, Victoria, BC.
