Huron United Way kicks off campaign
By Bonnie Gropp
"Reaching out in Huron" the
annual United Way campaign offi-
cially got underway today (Sept
15).
Executive Director Connie
Argyle said the goal for this year's
campaign is $125,000, up $42,000
from last year. "We feel fairly con-
fident that we can aspire to that
goal," said Ms Argyle.
The best and easiest way to give,
Ms Argyle says has been through
payroll deductions. Larger indus-
tries such as Cooks in Hensall and
the board of education have been
involved in previous years and she
hopes the organization can broaden
that base this year.
Retired principal Don Prowse has
been concentrating his campaign on
the schools while Dr. Pat Clancy is
looking at the hospitals and nursing
staffs. "This is such a broad spec-
A Belgrave area man is taking
steps to be one of few producers of
a little known product.
John Gaunt of RR I Belgrave,
has approximately an acre and a
half of autumn crocuses (properly
called calchicum) and he is looking
for a market for the late blooming

Gaunt's farm near Belgrave

trum we really need someone to
concentrate specifically on these
areas," says Ms Argyle.
What's important and unique
about the United Way, Ms Argyle
says is that there are 19 agencies
aided by the contributions."Con-
tributors feel good, because they
are helping so many and they don't
have 19 different people knocking
on their door asking for money,"
she said.
For an agency to become part of
the United Way campaign it has to
prove, first that the money will stay
in Huron for day-to-day services,
says Ms Argyle. "None of it can be
used for capital expenditures and
they must provide a financial state-
ment so United Way can then
decide how to divvy up the
money," Ms Argyle says, adding
that last year needs study suggested
an amount of $160,000. "So we're
flower.
The project began very simply
when Mr. Gaunt decided to culti-
vate the bed of crocuses his mother
had begun some 40 years ago.
He began digging the bed and
placing the bulbs into rows for easi-
er maintenance and removal.
After many hours of work, he
found the three "magic" bulbs his
mother had planted had multiplied
into enough to fill the acre and a
half.
Mr. Gaunt estimates the field to
be worth approximately $200,000
based on the retail value of $5 per
medium sized bulb.
He hopes to make in-roads to the
autumn crocus market as there are a
limited number of suppliers of the
rare bulb. "At present, most bulbs
are imported from the Nether-
lands," he says.
The soft mauve-pink blooms
which are reaching their peak sea-
son now, can be purchased locally

still a long way off to meeting the
needs in the county, but we hope
each year to keep chipping them
off," she said.
Ms Argyle explained that when
she was first appointed to the posi-
tion of executive director, she trav-
elled to each of the agencies to
introduce herself and learn more
about what they do. "If everyone
could hear the good these agencies
do in the community, they would
be amazed."
Most of the agencies are county
wide and all are "very needy"
"They may not be the high profile
agencies; maybe you can't look out
your window and see it, but if they
weren't there you'd notice their
absence. They deal with the pain
and confusion of a changing
world."
Agencies presently served by the
Huron United Way are: Big Broth-
ers North Huron, Big Brothers and
Sisters, Big Sisters Goderich Dis-
trict, Community Child Abuse
Coordinating Committee, Child
Find, Huron County, Clinton Co-op
Childcare Centre, Girl Guides,
Huron Safe Homes for Youth,
Canadian Mental Health Associa-
tion, Epilepsy Ontario-Huron, Fam-
ily Services Huron-Perth, Pheonix
Second Stage Housing, Survival
Through Friendship House, Wing-
ham and District Community Liv-
ing Association, Women Today,
Lambton Elderly Outreach-Grand
Bend, Huron Adult Day Centre,
Town and Country Homemakers
and Wheels Away.
"We are proud to have them on
board," says Ms Argyle "and hop-
ing beyond hope that we can get
the word out to reach our goal for
them."
Donations to the Huron United
Way can be made by mail, through
payroll deductions or to the area
