Tuning up for the main event
A team of horses belonging to Murray Siertsema of Blyth had a practice run at a little farm
work as members of the Huron Thresher Reunion came out to watch, July 28, as the team
harvested a small field of wheat next to the soccer field. For the first time in many years,
horse events will be part of the Huron Pioneer Thresher Reunion and Hobby show in Blyth,
Sept. 11, 12, and 13.
