Last Wednesday, Bryan and Gordon Gross participated in afundraiser for the CanadianFoodgrains Bank. This Harvest forHunger Event was held on a farm inthe Monkton area. The weather wasvery co-operative and as a result, there was a large crowd of spectators in attendance. Over 120 combines harvested 160 acres of soybeans in just less than 12 minutes in an attempt to break the current world record. The event went ahead Wednesday after being postponed twice due to unco-operative weather. Unfortunatelythey were unable to match thecurrent record of 11 minutes andeight seconds set in Winkler,Manitoba. The event raised close to $250,000 for famine relief. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Sounds of Autumn variety concert that was to have been held at Knox United on Oct. 29 has been cancelled. Wawanosh Community Cats clean up Dungannon Road Where would one find a ski boot, a muffler, a vinegar jug, McDonald’s wrappers galore, beverage cans and much more? If you said Dungannon Road between Dungannon and Port Albert, you’re either a good guesser or were a part of Wawanosh Community Cats roadside cleanup on Aug. 31. The members split into groups and started cleaning up near Highway 21 and the Agricultural Park. Before it got dark, the members had collected a half-dozen bags of garbage and recyclables. The members were surprised at how much they found and hope that in the future people will throw less out along the side of the road. After their cleanup, the club gathered under the Northern Cross Pavilion to cover the material for meetings five and six. President Maisy Jefferson led the roll calls, one of which asked the members to name community service groups; the Dungannon Lions, Victim Services, the Kinsmen and the Catholic Women’s League were among those mentioned. The roll call for meeting six asked the members to create a headline for a newspaper article about the circus coming to town. Meagan Higgins then read the minutes from meeting four and after the date of the next meeting was added, they were approved. Achievement was then discussed. The members will be volunteering at the Auburn Pumpkin Party in October. Mary Ellen Foran will e-mail the members after the organizers hold their next meeting. Next, Cathy Drennan gave the members the Huron County 4-H quiz. The members worked through this, doing fairly well but also learning a little. The members then discussed some problems that are often encountered when supervising volunteers. Cathy Drennan introduced the ideas of public service announcements and press reports. The members will practise writing press reports and include them in their books. Since it was getting difficult to read, the members closed the meeting with the motto and enjoyed some juice, fruit and rice crispy squares. The ball stops here A goaltender at the second annual Road Hockey Day in Auburn was having none of what the opposing team’s offense was throwing at him as he made a glove stop. The event featured six teams and was held on Saturday, Oct. 8 and was a fundraiser to help the people of Goderich.
