Indiana visitors enjoy
Huron 4-H hospitOlity.
The 27, 4H club members and
chaperones from Indiana who
visited Huron County had a
wonderful time, according to Len
McGregor, extension officer with
the Department of Agriculture in
Clinton.
"Everything has gone well and
I think it has helped generate
enthusiasm for 4H programs
here", Mr. McGregor said. The
Indiana group returned a visit
that 411 club members from
Huron County made to their state
at the beginning of the summer.
Unlike Ontario where there are
two separate 411 programs, the
homemaking clubs and the agri-
cultural clubs, in Indianna 4H is
one program, incorporating both
types of clubs.
The homemaking club mem-
bers from this province miss out
on exchanges like these, Mr.
McGregor says. There is some
work being done on bringing the
two programs together, as in
Indiana, he said, but there have
always been the two separate 41-1
branches in Ontario.
He said that local 4H members
have gotten a lot of good ideas,
plus the experience of travel out
of the exchange. Indiana is about
400 miles from here.
The local clubs put on a number
of entertainments for their visi-
tors. "We're lucky that we didn't
get any rain", Mr. McGregor
says, "just a sprinkle during the
picnic on Sunday and then it
cleared up."
The Indiana exchange is the
largest one yet for Huron County.
The group left for home Wednes-
day morning after spending five
days with 4H club members and
their families all over the county.
