South Huron Sheep Club plans for Seaforth Fall Fair
By Evy Verschaeve
The South Huron 4-H Sheep Club
met for its fifth meeting with
members bringing their own sheep
on Aug. 9 at 6:30 p.m.
Members mingled and shared
anecdotes about their sheep to one
another as they waited in line for
their sheep to be sheared by special
guest, Edwin Gerber. Many
surprised voices rang out at the sight
of their sheep, “He looks so bald!”
When all of the sheep had been
sheared, the members practised
walking their sheep as if they were
in a show. Members traded tips to
one another as novice members
listened closely. When members felt
comfortable showing their sheep
they loaded them into their vehicles.
They regrouped around Edwin’s
truck tailgate, where leader Deb
taught members how to clean and
bundle wool for it to be judged.
Members will need to take their
fleeces to the Seaforth Fall Fair in
September, where the wool will be
judged on its elasticity, cleanliness,
lanolin and crimp.
With this knowledge, the members
continued on and they encountered
meat rabbits. Members learned what
to look for when judging the rabbits,
including width, depth and strength
throughout.
After judging, the official reasons
were given. Members took a
moment to pet the rabbits, before
they observed some fire
extinguishers which they will also
need to judge. When picking a fire
extinguisher for your home, it is
important to make sure it is the right
type for the fires it may encounter,
and is easy to use, among other
safety precautions.
After members judged and placed
the fire extinguishers, they ended the
meeting with the 4-H motto, ending
the evening with cookies and juice.

This ultra-modern two-storey home boasts a dramatic roof line, as well as a three-vehicle garage that is set
at an angle from the main building and connected to it by a mud room.
The entry is sheltered by a narrow roof that slopes at a 45-degree angle, echoing those over the kitchen and
dining area. Beyond the foyer, which features a double-height ceiling as well as a nearby powder room and
coat closet, is the open-plan great room.
Sliding glass doors open to a balcony overlooking the back garden, and built-in entertainment units flank the
gas fireplace. A vaulted ceiling lends an airy feeling to the room.
The dining room and kitchen enjoy access to a covered sundeck at the back of the home, which will be idea
for year-round grilling.
The kitchen is separated from the dining area by a prep island. Natural light will flood through the windows
over the kitchen sink, and the L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook. A built-in wine bar
occupies one wall, and a large walk-in pantry offers extra storage space.
A built-in desk adjoins the laundry room, which includes a double sink. Off the foyer is a den, with French
doors that open onto a courtyard.
The mud room contains a handy bench and cubby holes, and is adjacent to the stairway to the second floor.
Ceilings on the main floor measure 10 feet high, except in the great room, where the ceiling is vaulted.
Upstairs, a railing protects the area open to the great room below. The master suite overlooks the back
garden and includes an en-suite with a separate toilet and double basins, both of which will be welcome
during the morning rush hour. For a touch of luxury, there’s a soaker tub was well as a corner shower stall.
The spacious walk-in closet will accommodate even the most fashion-conscious couple’s clothing and
accessories.
The second and third bedrooms overlook the front garden and share a three-piece bathroom.
The triple-vehicle garage has space for an L-shaped work bench, and includes three small windows above
the doorway to the single-vehicle portion.
Exterior finishes include stucco, wood siding and brick accents. Narrow roofs shade the pantry and den
windows and the French doors, with shingles on the rest of the roofing. A low brick wall surrounds the
courtyard outside the den, as well as a large planter to the right of the entry.
This home measures 90 feet, nine inches wide and 51 feet deep, for a total of 2,864 square feet.
Plans for design 7-3-1008 are available for $975 (set of 5), $1050(set of 8) and $1110 for a super set of 10.
