"We want to have fun with this class because that's what Paul would have wanted," said organizer George Townsend on. Friday. Paul Bettles, of Brucefield, died last December of a heart attack. "Paul led the 4-H," said Townsend. "Pretty near every one of these kids here today were led by him. That's where we got the idea of them coming back in his honour." The memorial class was one of the special features planned for this year's plowing match. "The Bettles were more than gracious enough to let us do this class in his honour. That was pretty neat, I thought," he said. Huron County plowers have won more than $42,000 in scholarships since the early 80s, with each scholarship of $2,500 going toward the recipient's further education. "Brian McGavin was one of the first ones," said Townsend, speaking of one of the current 4-H plowing leaders. "I'm pretty proud today," said Townsend, noting his three children Murray, Matt Townsend and Charlene O'Reilly were participating in the memorial class. "I think it's the first time ever all of them have plowed in the same class," he said. Townsend said the other special feature went well too.
