The Citizen Call for prices and details 519-523-4792 or 519-887-9114 Bieman named Jr. Ambassador By Denny Scott The Citizen Belgrave-area student Emily Bieman is the Brussels Agricultural Society's Junior Ambassador for 2017. Bieman won the honour on Aug. 12 in Brussels and the Grade 8 student is looking forward to the year ahead. "It was good and exciting to win," she said. Bieman spoke on the importance of 2017 in terms of marking Canada's 150th anniversary, the 100th iteration of the International Plowing Match and the Brussels Fall Fair celebrating its 156th year. The speech resulted in her being named to the Junior Ambassador position, which she first learned about through outgoing Junior Ambassador Ben Speer. "I heard about it from Ben," she said. "I got involved by writing an essay and submitting it." Bieman has been involved with the Brussels Fall Fair for many years through both the Belgrave-Brussels Beef and Lucknow Sheep 4-H Clubs and said she wanted to be more involved in the fair. She plans on showing for both clubs this year, in addition to serving in her capacity as Junior Ambassador. Since being named to the position, she has attended the 90th annual Huron County Plowing Match on Aug. 18 in South Huron. She looks forward to being a part of local parades and is excited to represent the Agricultural Society at the Brussels Fall Fair, which will be held at the 100th International Plowing Match outside of Walton Sept. 19-23. Bieman said her previous experiences with public speaking, including being named Belgrave Elementary School Fair ambassador several years ago, helped her prepare for this event. She said her family's support was also paramount to helping her win. Steinman Doug Steinman, Blyth's postmaster for the last three years, marked his last day in the village last week. Steinman, who started in Blyth just over three years ago, replacing then -retiring Faye Bolger in the position, has taken a job in Hensall, which is closer to his home of Kippen. Prior to Blyth, Steinman spent 18 years as the Kippen postmaster out of his home/commercial property in the village. With changing times in Kippen, however, he went looking for a different opportunity and landed in Blyth. Now, with the opportunity to work closer to home, Steinman said he had to take it, even if it meant leaving a village to which he had become attached. "Blyth is a nice place to be," he said. "The restaurants, the activity and the people are all things I'm going to miss" Steinman said he and his family had tried to find a home in Blyth, but couldn't, so when the opportunity to work in Hensall A new era Emily Bieman, left, was named Junior Ambassador of the Brussels Fall Fair for 2017. Bieman, who routinely attends the fair through her 4-H participation, is looking forward to her time with the title. Shown with Bieman is Little Ambassador Casey Bernard. (Denny Scott photo) She also thanked the sponsors of the event and members of the Agricultural Society and ambassador contest committee. Bieman is excited to stand along Ambassador Erin McMahon and Little Ambassador Casey Bernard for the next year. leaves Blyth P. Office arose, he jumped on it. "I enjoyed almost everything about my time in Blyth except the winter drive," he explained. Steinman still lives in Kippen with his wife Debbie, who works at the Huron -Perth Community Legal Clinic, and three of his four children. Dan, his eldest, recently moved to Charlottetown. As far as his mark on the village, Steinman said he didn't change much at the local post office, but did say he was proud of the way staff had maintained the exterior of the building, especially the landscaping. Steinman's replacement has yet to be announced. Letter to the Editor Vodden congratulates Blyth 140th volunteers THE EDITOR, I want to congratulate all the groups that helped the 140th birthday committee, as together, they made the weekend of July 28- 30 such a success. All of our visitors spoke of the pleasant atmosphere on the streets, in the shops, restaurants and park. Many enjoyed the thought - provoking quiz. One Toronto person very much enjoyed talking with two wee girls at the Lions Park. Everyone we spoke with was in awe of the many things happening in our village. Sincere thanks to everyone who gave time to let visitors and residents enjoy our village. Sincerely, Janis (Morritt) Vodden.
