The Citizen Classifieds Blyth • Brussels 519-523-4792 519-887-9114 More than one-quarter of all women in the world are rural women and Women Today of Huron (WTH) wants to celebrate the important role many of these women play in our lives right here in Huron County. Oct. 15 is World Rural Women’s Day (WRWD) and WTH will be holding an open house to give the public a chance to learn more about the work we do with rural women. Everyone is invited to the 45 West St. office in Goderich from 2 - 5 p.m. to help celebrate rural women in the communities. World Rural Women’s Day began at the UN Conference for Women in Beijing in September, 1995. Devoting a day to recognizing rural women was seen as a practical way to celebrate and support the multiple roles of rural women who are mostly farmers and small entrepreneurs. More than one-quarter of all women in the world are rural women and their contributions to the well- being of their families and the development of rural economies are recognized on this day. The theme for this year’s day is The Right to Food: Rural Women Produce and Provide. Women produce on average more than half of all the food that is grown: up to 80 per cent in Africa, 60 per cent in Asia, and between 30 and 40 per cent in Latin America and western countries. But despite the large role women play in the production of food, women own only two per cent of the land and receive only one per cent of all agricultural credit. Karen Serres, president of the IFAP Committee on Women Farmers, wrote in her address: “We, rural women, want to contribute to this awareness to the right to a healthy, balanced and sufficient food supply for all…We are all interdependent on our planet. Men and women, rural and urban dwellers, we all depend on each other and on food for our survival. Let us promote together improved living and working conditions for rural women so that together we may move towards a world where words such as ‘malnutrition’ and ‘famine’ will no longer be relevant.” For more information about WRWD or about WTH, call 519- 524-6767 or e-mail info@wthuron.ca Hunting is a tradition – a sport the roots of which are deeply embedded in the human condition. Hunters know and respect the land and the creatures that inhabit it. They are conservationists who enjoy hunting not just for the shooting, but also for the skill required to master this pastime and the traditional element associated with it. The Hullett Provincial Wildlife Area provides hunters with a quality hunting experience for all game animals that are in season. The area is located in the Ministry of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Management Unit # 85B. There are no user fees to hunt at Hullett and Sunday hunting is permitted for all game in season, save for federally regulated game such as migratory birds (including ducks, geese, rails, etc…). Hunting at Hullett is regulated by the conservation officers of the MNR as well as enforcement officers from the Canadian Wildlife Service. Hunters are required to complete a hunting and firearms safety course and pass examinations for each. A hunter must be sure of his/her target before firing as well. Stiff penalties are levied against those who break the rules. The sport of hunting is highly regulated and studies have shown that hunters and non-hunters (in a hunting zone) alike have a greater chance of dying from a lightning strike or insect sting than in a hunting accident. If the public or another hunter witnesses an unsafe (or illegal) hunting practice taking place, they are asked to report the incident to our local Conservation Officers at 519-482-3667 (during business hours), 519-525-1128 (cell) or by calling 1-800-TIPS- MNR. These incidents also include damage and desecration to the natural areas themselves. Working together, hunters and non-hunters alike can make the autumn hunting season a safe and enjoyable time for all who partake in the splendor of Hullett. The Hullett Wildlife Area is a multi-use facility, and as such is open to both hunters and non- hunters during the hunting seasons. Recreational users are advised to wear bright clothing for increased visibility and avoid concentrations of hunters. We recommend that the public contact us at 519-482-7011 or e- mail: outreach@hullettmarsh.org for information about hiking areas and naturalist opportunities during the hunting season. It is imperative that we all work together and respect each other’s needs in order for all to enjoy the Hullett Experience. Sunday, Oct. 14 the Fall Colours Walk at the Hullett Provincial Wildlife Area is at 1 p.m. and the Autumn Owl Prowl is Saturday, Oct. 27 at 7 p.m. Hullett Marsh Happenings Scot Russell Outreach Co-ordinator Friends of Hullett Oct. 15 Rural Women’s Day A charitable operation Volunteers spent the better part of the day Sept. 25 at Huron Chapel Evangelical Missionary Church distributing Operation Christmas Child boxes to the people of Huron County with hopes that they would come back full, ready to be sent out. Dianne Wolfe, pictured here, was one of the volunteers on hand, giving out the empty boxes. The shoe boxes are due back the second week of November. They are expecting 1,800 boxes just from the area heading to Kitchener to be processed and then eventually shipped out. Last year, just under 740,000 full shoe boxes were donated in Canada.
