March good time to join Junior Farmers
Right now: is your chance to join in the
fun! If you are between 15 and 30 you too can
join in the opportunities available through
this organization,
The name. has always been misleading
because in reality there are few "farmers"
in the clubs. The „club would better be called
by some other name, but don't let this deter
you from gifting it a try. Remember, like
anything else you only get out of it what you
put into : it'. So; if you only attend one
meeting and find it boring you have not
given it enough of a chance. You will find
that by attending more activities and ex-
pressing your interests and desires to the
executive, that they will work to make it ex-
actly the way you want it.
Contact one of your local Junior Farmer
clubs and ask them what they have to offer
you. I'm sure that you will be pleased'.
Let's do it! Let's join in the fun' Let's join
