Times-Advocate, 1983-12-14, Page 5Introduce Katimavik.. My name is Mary Jo Swidley, and I am 20 years old. 1 live in Riven, just 20 miles southwest of Edmon- ton, Alberta. The main reasons for enter- ing Katimavik is that it enables me to travel Canada, meet people, and challenge self-discipline. During the past two months, I have been working at the South Huron Rec Cen- tre. The Rec people are great! Congratulations, Jo Ann! Billeting for two weeks at the Ryan's Swine Farm, was certainly unique and challenging. There were chickens too, I must say, "the ham and eggs were good!" Thanks to the Ryan's and the pigs. My stay was short, but fun. I have become quite ac- customed with Exeter and various areas and there are obvious contrasts between Ontario and Alberta. The peo- ple, history and culture here have been a learning and very rewarding experience to remember. I must say for myself that Katimavik is great and is a challenging lifestyle. I have met super people, expecially the 11 who I live with. I want to let the group know how much I really appreciate their friendship and support. Thanks. you guys are the best!
