The play is Huron County's entry in "Culturama", a provincial competition. The play had some romance, suspense, music and most of all - comedy. The audience also enjoyed music, dancing and speeches performed by talented Junior Farmer members. Proceeds from the event, held April 1 in Clinton, will go towards community betterment projects in Huron County. With spring on its way, people are beginning to become a little more active than they have been throughout the winter months, and that is exactly what the Clinton and District Junior Farmers have been in the past few weeks, active. The year began for the Junior Farmers with members canvass- ing for the Heart and Stroke Foundation on February 22, where they collected donations amount- ing to $440 in a section west of Hwy. #4, in Hullett Township. March was membership month throughout the province, and the Clinton club had a total of 37 members at its last monthly meeting held in Clinton including eight new members. Membership fees will also be accepted during any month throughout the year. Those who wish to become a members or would like more information can contact Neil Cart- wright, 523-4712 or Linda Cun- ningham, 526-7557. Three enthusiastic members attended the Executive Workshop in London on February 28 to March 2 and two delegates represented the club at the March Conference, also in London, March 14 to 16. Both the workshop and the confer- ence proved to be informative and enjoyable, with jam-packed ses- sions on needs, goals, parliamen- ary procedure, and communica- tions. All those who attended benefitted greatly and appreciated all those 'who made it possible for them to attend. A donation of $500 was present- ed to the Clinton Public Hospital as the Community Betterment pro- jectfor the month of March. The contribution was well received and no doubt will be put to good use. The attending members of the Last meeting suggested, and are planning to donatetheir services to the Ministry of Natural Resources or the Maitland Valley Conserva- tion Authority. David Cartwright is to make inquiries and report back to the club at their next meeting on April 14 at the Vanastra and District Recreation Centre. Swim- ming will follow the meeting.
