"That first day we were together, we were all quiet because we didn't know what to say to eachlother. Today, as We leave we're friends and sad to leave." The two one-week camps, sponsored by United Co- operatives of Ontario (UCO) were held Aug. 9-15 and 15-21 at Geneva Park near Orillia. The first week had 20 par- ticipants, the second week, 21—all between the ages of 18 and 21 and all from farm families. "The youths's sense of self gradually evolved into a mutual understanding and appreciation of each other's viewpoints and habits," said Dr. Reg Crossman, director of public relations and the organizer of thecamps. "What's important in this development," he added, "is that the participants did not lose sight of their own in- dividuality: They remained competitive at both sports and lectures but a supportive feeling evolved. Because of their own confidence, each was able to support others in the group and in turn help reassure them of their potential and capabilities. UCO's youth camp began in 1966 as a one week leadership camp for boys in their early teens. Several years later it was exp$nded to include girls. The success of those first camps prom- pted UCO to expand its program to two one-week camps. A major change was made when eligibility was altered to the present ages of 1R to 21. "At this age most par- ticipants have completed high school and have determined their career direction by choosing either some form of post -secondary education or staying on the farm," Dr. Cressman ex- plained. "We felt there would be a greater mutual ap- preciation—the participants could ask us some pretty pertinent questions and we would be, able to hear how they felt about the future of Mrs. Folder WI hostess LAKELET — Eleven members and three visitors gathered for the September meeting of the Lakelet Wo- men's Institute at the home of Mrs. Lloyd Forler. The meeting was opened with the roll call;: name an implement used today that our grandparents didn't use. The group decided to send leaders to training school for more quilting. Mrs. Harry Judge will be the delegate to the area convention to be held in Brussels Oct. 22 and 23. Mrs. Emerson Ferguson will be her alternate. Mrs. Percy Huth in- troduced Mrs. Jim Rea, a native of Scotland who is now. living in Howick. Mrs. Rea spoke and showed pictures of Scotland and was thanked and presented with a gift by Mrs. Derril Hallman. Mrs. • Douglas MacGregor thanked the hostess and lunch was served by Mrs. G. Wright and the hostess. . �.a farming and co-operative philosophy.
