McGavin Farm Equipment Ltd. 887-6365 527-0245 WALTON BY BOB MURPHY A delegation from the Huron Plowmen's Association appeared before county council Jan. 2 to seek its support in having the 1992 international plowing match held here in Huron County. Neil McGavin of Walton, provin- cial director of the Ontario Plow- man's Association and a member of the Huron Association, asked council at its regular session in the court house at Goderich for Division of Gerbro Inc. confirmation in writing of its support to have the match held here in 1992. McGavin told council that even though all of the figures were still not in on the recent international match in Elgin County, it is felt that the match generated some $500,000 to $1 million of revenue for the county. In addition, he said, a drop in unemployment at that time was also directly attributable to the Plan to attend 887-9261 527-1540 plowing match. Attending the council meeting with McGavin to present the request were Ernie Talbot of Stanley Township, Huron Plow- man's Association president; Peter Hallahan of Belgrave, the association's first vice-president; Graeme Craig of Walton, associa- tion secretary-treasurer; and Lori Consitt of Stanley Township, 1985 Queen of the Furrow. &&&&& 1.2•2.1.1550. &&&&& Ca fla &&&&&& .5 ..111
