Ripley agricultural
For the past two weeks we intended to
write something on the indoor hall exhibits
at the Ripley fall fair, This year it was bet-
ter than ever, both in appearance and in the
number and quality of exhibits. This was the
ninth indoor display in the Coliseum since it
was built in 1975. And it is so nice to have
such a fine facility for this purpose.
This part of the fair is organized into 13
classes. It is the one in Ontario to have the
indoor show listed first in its prize list. Now
here are a few names and numbers for these
different classes,
Class 1 is the Grain or field crops which is
in four parts - the corn show, the hay show,
the bags of grain and seeds and the sheaves,
and the 441 Grain Club exhibits, These are
at the back or north end of the arena with
good access for moving the entries an and
out of the complex.
There were 25 sheaves of corn, 10 stalks
each. with cobs attached and placed as
follows; Robert Scott, Kermit Goodhue,
Murray Wilken, Bill Scott, Peter Van Sickle,
Rick Smith, James 8, Farrell, Ran Brooks,
Brian Hooey, Keith van der Hoek, Lynn
Courtney, John Gamble, Bob Blackwell,
Wes Smith, Jim Scott Rob Lowry, Gary
Courtney, Carman Bridge, John D. Fattish,
Dennis Bridge, Allan Gamble, Gordon Pat-
terson, Grace MacAuley, and Freda Court-
ney,
In the display of 16 grain cobs per entry
there were 33 entries as follows; 13111 Scott,

demand for a grand piano, and the need for a
new lighting system and new stage
draperies has been pressing for years. The
cost of upgrading the facilities total $83,000.
The board of the Myth Centre has now
completely retired the debt from the initial
building addition and renovation which was
completed in 1980. The Board of Directors
raised almost $100,000 towards the total
project cost of $320,000 over the past three
years, That money came from canvassers,
dinners, raffles and the many generous
donations of local residents and organiza-
tions,
Several organizations have made gener-
ous pace setting donations to the new
upgrading campaign.
The Blyth Centre has diverted $10,000 of
operating revenue to the project, and the
Ministry of Tourism and Recreation has
been approached for $10,000 under their
Community Recreation Centre program.
Wintario has underwritten the cost of new
stage draperies at $3,000, and the residents
of the area have given a resounding "yes" to
the idea of a grand piano by donating over
$$,00O towards its cost.
