West Huron Junior'Farmers
celebrate 10 years of work
J.
This year, the .West Huron Junior
. Farmers are celebrating their 10th year as
an organization. •
For the past 10 years, the West' Huron
Junior.. Farmers has been helping out and
taking part in our community and hope to
keep up .our work in the future.
The Junior Farmers group was organiz-
ed in 1948. Since the club consisted of
Colborne, Ashfield and West Wawanosh,
the club took on the • name of Colwonash.
The Junior Farmers', motto is self help
and community betterment. The programs
at that time were aimed to help young
farmers while the;wonien formed a Junior
Institute.and had programs for the home-
maker. Each had their own meetings
followed bey a • joint meeting which was
more for socializing.
The club was affiliated with county and
the provincial organizations. It was 'dis-
banded in. 1961.
The present club; West Huron Junior
Farmers was re -organized in 1975 and is.
still running today. There are five Junior
'Farmers Clubs in Huron County.. These
branches are Howick, Clinton, Seaforth,
South Hurn and West Huron. These clubs
are just a small part of the Junior Farmers
organization across Ontario and Canada.
