Threshers weekend
For the better part of a week Blyth’s population increased
substantially as the Blyth Campground was filled with the
members and visitors to the annual reunion of the Huron
Pioneer Thresher and Hobby Association. Events were held
across town and throughout the week, including, clockwise
from top-left, a plowing demonstration just outside of Blyth,
blacksmithing and silversmithing demonstrations on the
grounds, vendors in the Blyth and District Community
centre, a firefighters’ breakfast at the Blyth Emergency
Services Training Centre (ESTC), old-fashioned children’s
activities like butter-churning and, of course, threshing
demonstrations. A gallery of photos from the event can be
viewed on The Citizen’s website at www.northhuron.on.ca
