Many little ghouls and goblins came out to the Auburn Community Hall to celebrate Halloween on Friday evening. The Auburn Playground Committee was overwhelmed by the attendance. Families from near and far came to participate in the Family Halloween Night while J.C. Coutts from 101.7 The One morning show played music. It was a packed house. The Halloween Dance on Saturday night was equally as successful. There was a great turnout. Prizes for best costumes were given to “Gene Simmons” (who is believed to be Jeff Nesbitt), John Hulley for his inflatible wrestler costume and Bev Lamb and Paul Cooke for their inmate costumes. The numbers are not in yet from the events, but will be available next week. The Auburn Playground Committee has erected a “goal chart” on the front of the Auburn Community Hall to let residents know their progress. A big “thank you” goes out to the Auburn Lions for their help with these events, as well as to J.C. Coutts for the entertainment. It is great to get the community together and have some fun!

Love Dad and Mom, Christopher, Ryan By Koreen Moss 519-526-1060 kandkmoss@ sympatico.ca PEOPLE AROUND AUBURN New pres from Auburn Marinus Bakker, RR3, Auburn, was elected president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture at the organization’s annual meeting in Holmesville, Oct. 28. Bakker, who was unopposed, succeeds Wayne Black, also of RR3, Auburn who retired after serving two years. In accepting his position, Bakker praised the work of Black in his two years as president and for attending many meetings to speak on behalf of Huron’s farmers. Black said being president allowed him to meet many wonderful people. He said the federation’s board of directors was made up of many diverse people bringing different views to any subject. When a policy comes before them, the directors “rip it apart, chew on it for a while and put it back together in a way that helps agriculture”. He also praised the work of the public relations committee which created a new logo, was designing a new website and was exploring the use of social media as a way of advocating for agriculture. Acclaimed first vice-president was Joe Vermunt of Zurich while Carol Leeming of Seaforth was acclaimed second vice-president. Local township directors include: Colborne, Geoff McMullen; Hullett, Carman Drost; Morris, Pat Jamieson and East Wawanosh, Joan Vincent. Among those acclaimed as directors at large were Steve Webster, Ian Scott and Stephen Thompson. Elected to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture’s Policy Advisory Committee were Ken Scott for Huron East (comprising the former townships of Howick, Morris, McKillop and Turnberry); Wayne Black for Huron West, (Goderich, Colborne, Ashfield, East and West Wawanosh and Hullett) and Wayne Hamilton for Huron South (Hay, Stephen, Usborne, Stanley and Tuckersmith). Elected delegates for Huron West were Joan Vincent, Bruce Bergsma and Jeff Klomps. Delegates from Huron East are Steven Webster and Christa Eckert, with one vacancy to be filled.
