News Glanville wins Civic Service Citizenship award Years with Agricultural Society, Kinburn Forresters show love of community n a s u Saoderlmark Susan e a n Agricultural Society when more For Betty Glanville, contributing to her community is just an every- day expression of how much she enjoys living in it. "I like where I live - we have a lot to offer," says this year's winner of the Seaforth Citizenship Awards' Civic Service award. "I learned from my parents that you have to be part of your commu- nity to get anything out of it," she says. Glanville, who lives at RR 4 Walton with her husband Ken, has raised three children at the same time she's been involved with vari- ous community groups such as the Seaforth Agricultural Society, the Kinburn Forresters and Cavan United Church, where, she's taught Sunday School for more than 40 years.

Henry Huberts Sunday, Dec. 9 11:15am Service Sunday School and Nursery Provided than 20 years ago, she asked what was involved in entering some exhibits in the fair. "I wanted to enter something and I ended up committing to becoming Home Craft president in four years," she recalls. "My first year as president, I entered raspberry jam and it was mouldy when the judge opened the jar. We never told him who the jam belonged to. It was funny but not funny. I never had that problem again," she says. She says coming second in this year's pie auction was an exciting achievement after running the Agricultural Society's President's Pie Auction for the past 10 years. Glanville says the fair board is what she's busiest at each year but sees the organization as a valuable one in the community. "The fair helps keep the rural and the townfolk together," she says. Her participation in the Kinburn Forresters sometimes intersects with her involvement with the Ag Society. "We're (the Forresters are) going to sponsor the Junior Ambassador of the Fair next year. I hope it will get to be a bigger competition now that there's a sponsor," she says. Glanville says the Forrester's main fundraiser, the annual chicken barbecue, lets the club support youth and the needy in the area. For instance, a $500 donation went to foodbanks in Seaforth, Clinton and Wingham this year, she says. Glanville has also played slo-pitch and broomball for years. Her nomination form praises her constant new ideas to raise money for the community. "We just feel and hope she can be honoured for doing so much for her community," says the nomination.
