Hensall Venturer earns top award HENSALL — Scott Murray, 18, a member of the 1st Hensall Venturers, received the Queen's Venturer Award from Lord Robert Baden-Powell, grandson of the founder of the Scouting movement, at a ceremony held in the Scarborough Civic Centre on Sunday, May 24. The award represents a number of firsts. Murray is the first recipient from Huron District, and he was one of 51 Venturers from across Ontario to be honoured at the first provincial Venturer Awards Ceremony. The Queen's Venturer Award 'signifies that a Venturer has, in the opinion of those who know him, both the character and the ability to be of significant help to people. In order to qualify, a Venturer must hold the Outdoorman Award, the Venturer Award–or therAike of Edinburgh Award I silver level ); be a member of good stan- ding, hold a current St. John Ambulance Standard Certificate or equivalent; be qualified to hold an award for service skill; complete a minimum of 25 hours of com- munity service; act as an Acti... ty Leader or Scouter -in -Training for at least eight meetings; serve as a member of the Com- pany Executive; keep an up-to-date record of Venturer activities; and be recommend- ed by the Adventurer Advisor and the District Commissioner. Terming Scout associations "the greatest youth movement on earth", Lord Baden- Powell said "Scouts from anywhere in the world can meet and immediately there is a bond of mutual trust." Although Baden-Powell, 51, has seen the movement established by his grandfather in 1907 change dramatically, he feels Scouts to- day have "early Victorian" morals. "They're not prudish," he said. "They think things through. They have a set of moral values, and they live their lives by them". The Scouting movement has spread around the world, and now has over 14 million members. Baden-Powell said. Though figures for the number of female Scouts in Ontario who receive Queen's Ven- turer Awards are not kept, Baden-l'owell said 60 percent of noihinees in the United Kingdom are female. Murray was accompanied to the awards ceremony by his mother, Mrs. Marie Mur- ray, Richard Edwards, District Commis-, sioner for Huron District, and Venturer Ad- visors Peter Nyberg and Sandra Bell from the 1st Hensall Venturers. Scott is the son of the late Carl Murray and grandson of Madeline & Jim Murray. Scott Murray, of Hensall, was presented with the Queen's Venturer's Award by Lord Robert Baden-Powell, grandson of the founder of the Scouting movement, at an awards ceremony held in the Scarborough Civic ('entre. ears " ✓.-- j , tiar �A4.✓ one hundred & nineteenth annual HENSALL SPRING FAIR FRIDAY, JUNE 12 and SATURDAY, JUNE 13 ,III .,.,ILII 4r"�IIII��iI?lll�'':'in �l'_ I�I'IIf�Rl,ll ..��� h'4 Hensall South Huron Agricultural Society PRESIDENT Bevin Kinsman 262-5472 LADIES SECRETARY Marlene Bell 262-6349 SECRETAR Judith Parker 235-0978 FRIDAY 4 00 p.m. Sheep Show 235-0437 5:00 p.m. Ladies & School Sections open 262-6349 6 00 p.m. Youth & Amateur - Owner Horse Show 236-4816 6.30 p.m. Mini Pedal Tractor Pull 262-5350 7:00 p.m. OFFICIAL OPENING by Murray Cardiff, M.P. 8:00 p.m. Jr. Talent Show 262-5608 - Queen of the Fair sponsored by Hensall & District Kinette Club SATURDAY 10:00 a.m. Appaloosa Horse Show 236-4818 11:00 a.m. Market & 4H Call Show 262-3033 11:00 a.m. Poultry Show 235-0437 12:00 noon PARADE 262-2201 1:30 p.m. Calf Club Show & Sale 262-3033 1:30 p.m. Ladies Programs & Baby Show162-6349 2:00 p.m. Horseshoe Pitch Competition HENSALL FAIR BOARD BEEF B.B.O.
