IPM 2017 partners with local high schools
Ensuring guests
have a special place
to sit at the match
Huron County will be welcoming
nearly one hundred thousand guests to
Walton, Ontario for the 100th Interna-
tional Plowing Match and Rural Expo
(IPM) in September 2017.
Helping them achieve this goal are
students in the construction classes at
all five high schools in Huron County
and one high school from Perth
County. Through hands-on learning
building two hundred and fifty
benches, students will learn necessary,
real life skills.
Benches are a traditional part of the
IPM as community members, busi-
nesses, and organizations can purchase
a bench, engraved with their name, and
the benches will be used as seating at
the Match. After the Match is com-
pleted the benches will be returned to
the owner for personal use. The bench
represents a lasting memory of IPM
2017.
"I am proud to be leading the co-
ordination of the benches as the IPM
2017 bench represents all that the
Match is supposed to be, from empow-
ering youth in our community, organi-
zational leadership, and community
spirit," said Jane Zwep, Chair of Exhibi-
tors and Bench Co -Ordinator.
The IPM thanks Pinder, Taylor,
McNeilly, Godkin LLP of Exeter for sup-
porting this initiative and Watson's
Home Hardware of Gorrie for the wood
to support the bench program.
Benches sell for $350 +tax. To pur-
chase a bench or receive more informa-
tion please contact Jane Zwep, Chair of
Exhibitors and Bench Co -Ordinator, at
jzwepipm2017@gmail.com or by
phone, 519 887 6605.
