° r Tented City
When the big Match open
the • area known as Tented City
was occupied, by 300 Exhibitors
and 40 Food Caterers. The us-
ual four street plan (vas follow-
ed. For the first time on record
a large building was erected in
the centre ' of Tented City from
which a very well planned Wo -
alien's Program of talks and
demonstrations was featured
each day. The Exhibitors repre-
sented practically all of the
commercial firms in the equip-
ment and supply field ,that do
business with farm ' people. It
was one of the largest shows in
the history of the International.
Hydro requirements were ar-
ranged through the area repre-
sentative of Ontario Hydro. The
necessary poles, transformers
and lines were installed with-
out charge. for use of Exhibi-
tors and Caterers. Local elec-
tricians were on the. grounds
and worked as a group in giv-
ing, service to those requiring
power. Ontario Hydro also pro-
vided a hot water service for
Food Caterers and show cases
in their main tent for display
of the O.P.A. trophies to be
awarded winning- plowmen.
Bell Telephone, as usual, gave
full co-operation in establishing
telephone service, both local and
long distance. The Company
worked closely with Hydro in
the matter of poles for carrying
their lines.
Water, under pressure, was
obtained from the Town of Sea -
forth. Plastic pipe, purchased
in York in 1965, was used. The
arrangement worked out very
satisfactorily.
One hundred and twenty-five
toilets were rented from a firm
in Ajax. Because of the extreme-
ly muddy conditions of the
Tented 'City it was impossible
for the firm to service the units
effectively" and it was for this
reason some criticism of their
condition was voiced.
Once again 'Family Herald
Printed and . distributed daily
programs in large quantities at
no cost to the, Association.
Peirson. Buildings Limited,
Peterborough, supplied the
headquarters building which
serves as administrative offices
for the O..P;A., Local Committee
and Press.
CKNX, Wingham, deserves a
very, special word of thanks for
their support, especially from a
publicity standpoint, bothpre-
vious to and during the event.
It was through their sponsor
ship that the women had a
suitable building ' in which to
stage their program. The O.P.A.
'also contracted with CKNX to
install and staff the public ad-
dress system.
CBC was there again with
their staff and planned pro-
grams in support of the Match.
They worked very closely with
other stations, particularly
CKNX, in matter of news, an-
nouncerhents of events and win-
ners of`contests, etc:
Ontario 'Provincial Police, as
usual, did a fine job under rath-
er difficult circumstances.
The Office of the' Ontario
Fire Marshal had their exhibit
and were set up to give fire
protection service.
The Department of Highways
again co-operated with the tick-
et selling committee and prov-
incial police by - erecting dir-
ectional signs on highways
leading to .the Match.
Imperial Oil Limited, as us-
ual, .supplied, . free of charge,
all the gasoline used by plow-
men during 'the Match. A sta-
tion to service tractors was set
up in the Tractor Park. In ad-
dition, the firm supplied a sound
truck and announcer for use in
conducting the various events
including plowing competitions.
The ; Huron County Junior
Farmers operated Wagon Tours
each day for the benefit of vis-
itors. Even Exhibitors and Cat-
erers made good use of the
service because of the mud.
One of the best banquets on
record was put on by the Local
Committee in the Seaforth
Arena on the Friday night. The
food, catering service, and pro-
gram, Were tops.
