Donna Johnston wins 4-H awards at Seaforth
Huron County’s top showman is
a pert young lady from RR 2,
Bluevale whose winning ways have
long made her a formidable
opponent where ever 4-H competi
tions are held.
At the Seaforth Fall Fair last
weekend, the Achievement Day
for Huron County 4-H Clubs,
Donna won the very difficult
All-Round Sweeptstakes Competi
tion Showman trophy by first
taking top place in the Sheep
Showman class with her lamb,
Sweet Pea, and then going on to
capture the highest marks in the
sweepstakes competition by show
ing, in turn, a horse, a beef calf, a
dairy calf and a market hog.
In addition, she placed first at
Seaforth with Sweet Pea as top
market lamb, top senior showman,
and top overall showman. Donna
also showed her beef calf, Howie,
at Seaforth, but did not place in the
county competition. She didn’t
really mind, though, since she had
previously taken the top senior
beef showman trophy at the
Brussels Fall Fair, pushing out her
second cousin, Scott Johnston,
also of RR 2, Bluevale, who had to
settle for reserve champion senior
showman.
Donna’s previous list of 4-H
achievements staggers the imagi
nation, as she has been winning
prizes since she first entered the
program at the age of 12. Now 17
(today, actually), she has complet
ed more than 30 4-H projects, is
presently a member of the Brussels
Dairy Club, the Brussels Beef
Club, the Huron Sheep Club,
Senior Dairy Management, Quest
for Success, Etiquette for the 80’s,
Seed to Shelf Garden Club, and the
new Milk Makes It project.
in the past, she has completed
projects with the Brussels Horse
Club and the Huron Dairy Club,
and has also taken dozens of
ribbons at local school fairs, open
shows, and has even won first place
inaHuronCounty Science Fair,
with a project on calf enteritis
which earned her a berth at the
national science fair in Saskatoon
in 1983.
Besides all this, Donna main
tains a straight A average at F. E.
Madill Secondary School in Wing
ham, and takes her work so
seriously that she will voluntarily
miss the chance earned with her
success at the Brussels and
Seaforth fairs to go on to the Hays
Classic Show and Sale at Markham
this November, since it is held
during her mid-term exams.
