Brussels U-6 IVs win 4-Hers go western By Ashley Casemore The fourth meeting of the Walton 4-H club was held on Thursday, July 29 from 7 - 9 p.m. at the new Cowboy Loft in Brussels. First, members talked about the different disciplines riders do with their horses such as reining, dressage, cutting and barrel racing. The roar of motocross swept over Walton this past week. The Lee farm was filled with riders and their families for three days of amateur racing and the Amateur championship. The Grand National Championship Pro riders arrived for the weekend to vie for the title on Sunday's race day. The-village of Walton's population swells to well over 2,000 for the week and crowds on Saturday and Sunday were fantastic. The many community groups who contribute to the success of the TransCan include the Walton Area Sports Club overseeing gate admissions and Brussels Minor Hockey overseeing flagging for the races and garbage collection. A day after the races are over, you would never guess that thousands of people had been on the farm by the tidiness and neatness of the place. Congratulations to those Minor Hockey folks who do such a great job. Blyth Minor Hockey supplies parking attendants for the weekend and keeps things in an orderly The Farm Safety Association, with assistance from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Agriculture Canada and the Canadian Agricultural Safety Association has developed a manual for farmers aimed at increasing awareness on the safe movement of farm equipment on the roadways. Each year in Ontario as thousands of pieces of farm equipment are moved on the province's roads, accidents result in property damage, injury and even death. Farm equipment moves at a much slower pace than other vehicles on the roadway and properly marked and lighted equipment can travel safely, warning other motorists of the fashion for approximately over 1,500 vehicles on Sunday. All these groups receive donations for their hard work and long hours committed to making the TransCan a success. CongratulationS for working for the betterment of their organizations. A job well done to everyone. Our belated congratulations to Chad McCallum and Crystal Semple who were married on Aug. 7. A beautiful lawn wedding was held at the home of Ron and Betty McCallum.

The Association hopes to make all users of the roadway aware of slow moving vehicles during the busiest times of the year. Motorists should anticipate encountering such vehicles in rural areas and adjust their driving habits accordingly. The booklet will also serve to remind farmers of their obligations under the Hightvay Traffic Act to properly mark their vehicles. Copies of the manual entitled "The Safe Movement of Agricultural Equipment on the Roadway" can be obtained free of charge from the Farm Safety Association Inc., 101 - 75 Farquhar St., Guelph, ON N1H 3N4.
