Ontario is most fortunate to possess an amazing abundance of young people who are making valuable, positive contributions to our communities. Each and every one of us has, at one time or another, been touched and inspired by the kindness, compassion or courage shown by a young person. Our youth possess a tremendous capacity for facing challenges, overcoming obstacles, inspiring their peers, and serving their communities. These exemplary young people abound in the qualities of leadership, compassion and perseverance. And the contributions made by these young people can not be allowed to pass without some notice or recognition. For that reason, the Ontario Community Newspapers Associa­ tion and Bell Canada are co­ ordinating and co-sponsoring the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards. Since their introduction in 1981, Junior Citizen awards have been presented to individuals and groups of young people, ages six - 18, who July was busy at Huronlea By Mary Gibbings Program Director The month of July was very busy at Huronlea.
