V olun teers from the Belgrave area made quick work last week of taking off the steel on the Belgrave arena.
By Wednesday afternoon all that was left for John Gaunt [left] and Glen Coultes was to load the steel on a
wagon. Work began Monday on installing a new roof which is to be in place in time for the annual Belgrave
fowl supper Oct. 8.
'Women at work' conference
Plowing Match
to try again
this weekend
A county-wide day-long confer
ence called “Womenat Work” has
been planned to meet the specific
needs of women in Huron County,
whether they are already working
or actively seeking employment,
according to Shelley Hartman,
co-ordinator of the project.
* ‘We are trying to identify the
specific needs of women in this
area, regarding employment is
sues. Once priorities are identi
fied , we will be in a situation where
specific solutions may be possi
ble,” said the Port Albert woman.
She added that the information
gathered at this conference will be
included in a booklet to be
published later this fall.
On October 18, Women at Work
will offer participants the oppor
tunity to take part in two seminars
of their choice, from a selection of
ten workshops. Each session will
be conducted in a manner which
will allow all participants to take
part by asking questions; in effect,
the women themselves will deter
mine the exact direction which the
session will take, says Mrs.
Hartman.
Workshop leaders will come
from several areas of expertise
within Huron County, as well as
from women’s organizations from
farther afield, and from education
al and restraining facilities across
southwestern Ontario.
Debbie Selkirk, a Dungannon-
area child-care activist, will dis
cuss current child-care issues of
growing concern, while Susan
White, formerly of Seaforth and
now with Loyalist Community
College in Belleville, will conduct a
session on ‘‘Super Woman -
Juggling a Home and Career.”
John Gillespie, manager of the
Canada Employment Centre in
Goderich, will offer some insight
into the future labour market in
Huron County, while Sheila Chick
will lead the seminar on non-tradi-
tional employment for women.
Seaforth lawyer Heather Ross will
conduct a workshop on ‘‘Women -
Discrimination and the Law,”
where the Employment Standards
Act will be an issue of discussion.
Kim Coulter, co-ordinator for
‘‘Womanpower” in London will
involve women who are interested
in getting a job, or changing their
present position, with her seminar
“Job Search Skills,” and Cathy
Joyce, from London's Women’s
Community Enterprises, will lead
the workshop on how to start and
manage a small business.
As well, representatives from
the University of Western Ontario,
Conestoga and Centralia Colleges,
the Huron Board of Education,
Adult Basic Education and Canada
Employment Centre will be avail
able to offer advice on educational
and retraining opportunities for
women within the county.
The conference will be held at
the Goderich High School. Work
shops will run from 9:15 a.m. until
3:30p.m., witha break at which
lunch is provided. The fee for the
day is $10, and Mrs. Hartman
urges anyone interested to register
early, as space at each seminar will
be limited.

With the on-again-off-again
sunshine and showers of the past
few days, directors of the Huron
County Plowing Match may not be
able to make a final decision on the
show until tomorrow (Thursday).
‘‘If we don’t have it this
weekend, 1 doubt if we will be able
to re-schedule it again for later,”
said Peter Hallahan, of RR 1,
Belgrave, first vice-president of
the Huron Plowmen’s Associatoin,
which sponsors the county match.
Originally scheduled for the
weekend of September 12-13, the
event had to be cancelled because
of bad weather, and was postponed
until October 3-4. And if it doesn’t
get under way this weekend, Mr.
Hallahan says Huron County may
be stuck for junior plowmen to send
to the International Plowing Match
in Grey County next year.
Under the Plowmen’s Associa
tion rules, two competitors from
the youth classes at each county
plowing match will be chosen to
represent their county at the IPM,
usually held later than the county
matches. Since the IPM has
already been held for 1986, Huron
competitors were allowed to go on
using the points gained at the 1985
county event; but this will leave
Huron short of contestants at the
1987 IPM, since no contestant may
compete for the same scholarship
awards more than once.
At the IPM held at Stirling
September 16-20, William Fother-
ingham, 17, and Murray Town
send, 15, both of RR 4, Seaforth,
won scholarships each worth
$2,500, offered to IPM contestants
who accumulate the most points in
their division. Both boys qualified
for the class with points won at the
local match in 1985.
If all goes well, the Huron
Plowing Match will be held at
Murray Cardiff’s farm, two roads
north of Brussels and one mile
east. The schedule will be the same
as originally planned, with coach
ing classes for young plowmen on
Friday, and regular classes, com
petitions and the Queen of the
Furrow contest held Saturday.
Mr. Hallahan said that the
conservation tillage classes, sche
duled for Saturday, may have to be
cancelled if the ground is too wet
for the plows, even if the rest of the
show goes ahead.
If the show is cancelled, the
Association executive will have to
decide whether to go ahead with
the banquet and queen contest
later this fall, in order to allow the
chosen queen a year of local reign
before having to compete at the
international level in 1987.
Further information may be
obtained from HPA secretary
Graeme Craig, at RR 1, Walton,
phone 887-9381.
