'EXETER - Having just spent a few days enjoying the grandeur of the Royal York Hotel in Toronto, I came home thinking that almost all of the 1500 delegates from across Ontario know'where Exeter is located. I was attending the On • - tario Association of Agricultural . Societies conventioirwith.230 oth- er fair societies and proudly wore an identification showing my name and home town. I was pleased to find that there were very few who did not know of Exeter and no one who had any negative comments of memories of this arca. (of course they may just have not mentioned them) I cannot begin to recall how many that I chatted with through- out the convention, but I do recall that only -three asked where is Ex • - eter, at which you need only men- tion London or Stratford for them to know our geographical location. One lady from Ancaster knows of "a young man in the fuel busi- ness, another fellow mentioned having gone to college with the lo- cal dentist's son, a group of ladies from Mark -ham knew -of some folks who were in the process of moving to Exeter and one gentle- man used to drive through od his way to work. One fellow who had heard about. our white squirrels told me he. .stopped oneday last summer to see them. This started a whole conver- sation about the squirrels as others Sales soar GRAND .BEND - "Group. sales will exceed those of last season ..." says Huron Country Playhouse Manager, Tim Davisson. -"The play selection, and Tony Lloyd are the reasons for the increase in group response."

Many delegates had some. very positive comments regarding the businesses and shops . on our main street. Still there are others who know of our political and sports celebrities who have gained recognition over the years, while other just remem- ber the attractiveness of the town as they drove through. I suppose the bulk of them re- member the Exeter Fair delegates,' .from our agricultural theme at the fair each year, as most will ask what it is to be. Many will men- tion the live chicken, that we had in our display for Focus on Fowl, and the Belleville delegates spoke of the fun we hadover our piglets that we wore on okir lapels when it was Focus on Pork, while this year we wore our Cowboy Hats for the theme focus on Horses. Last year I guess we were a little crazy when we put on a comical skit; but many remembered aur Hotstetn cow. . .Many fairs, probably through the need to survive and stay in the black, have had to add big name en- tertainment, or a demolition derby to their fair but so far, we at Exeter have remained an agricultural theme fair. This is largely due to the ex- cellent support of our rural and ur- ban friends in the Exeter area. Over the years, members of the Exeter Agricultural Society have taken an active part in the Huron Perth and the Ontario Association, so they too have made Exeter a rec- ognizable name throughout the province of Ontario. Our leftover prize lists are always taken to Toronto for other fairs to take home, as we all like to collect, read and get new ideas from them. This year 200 people will know a little more about the activities of our fair and our community by read- ing our prize list. And so it is with pride, that we wear our name tag with Exeter on it when we attend a provincial convention. Those directors from the Exeter Agricultural Society attending this year were: Wayne and Diane Shap - ton, Gwen and Murray Coward, Linda and Steve Johns, Bruce and Dolores Shapton, Alan Powe, Dale Marshall, Roy Pepper and our 1988/89 Queen of the Fair, Jennie Bregman. In the provincial photographic competition among 230 fairs, the Exeter society was fortunate to have won fourth prize in three categoric. Ray Cann, submitted a slide of our Queen, Jennie, holding a young lamb in the Exeter contest last No- vember under the category "Hewn Interest", we gave it a fist aid cgs knew it would be a winter! We have been waiting in anticipitioi for the results of the Ontario cosa- petition. Exeter also won fourth pare for slides in the categories of Newest Class at our Fair and Agricultwal Education Promotion. In our contest in November 'we had 20 entries from only dhnee ex- hibitors, Ray Cann, Bob Hern and Muriel Parsons. We offer prize of S8, $6, $4, $2, in 13 classes of col- oured slides and three classes of col- oured prints. The pictures must be taken at the fair and are judged in November. Thc winning entries are used for competition in the Ontario contest. So remember, to take your came- ra and class list to the Exeter Fall Fair, September 22, 23, 24, we need your entries and maybe your winning slide will be shown in To- ronto in 1990 as a winning entry from Exctcr.
