South Simcoe 4-H is
Wrapping Up!
As the middle of October approaches,
so does the end of another 4-H season.
What a beautiful month of September
that we had for all of the fall fairs. We
started on August 28th
at the Barrie Fair.
Barb Kell-Rose and Kelly Young
organized a wonderful 100th
Anniversary event with those from
Simcoe North. Special thanks to all of
them for all of their hard work.
The Beeton Fall Fair was a great day as
well and the rain even held off to almost
the end of the 4-H events.
Finally, the GNE at the Collingwood
Fairgrounds had the hottest day of all
for their achievement day.
Congratulations to all of the members
for all of their success and hard work. A
huge thank you goes out to all of the
leaders, volunteers and parents for
making it all happen. There would not
be 4-H without you!
We hope to see all of you at your
respective award banquets.

THANK YOU FROM
SHELDON CREEK DAIRY
On behalf of Sheldon Creek Dairy and the den Haan family, we would like to personally thank all the fantastic volunteers who came out to help at The Annual Day on the Farm program! The day ran so smoothly with the knowledgeable 4-Hers in the barn, to the kids activities and parking! It truly showcases how multitalented and resourceful 4-H members are. The day could not have been a success without the help of the many volunteers from 4-H who donated their time. On behalf of Sheldon Creek Dairy and the Day on the Farm program, we would like to make a donation to South Simcoe 4-H in the amount of $1,000 ($300 to the Association and $700 to the 2015 Exchange). We are so thankful for such a great service club working within our communities for the betterment. Keep up the great work! The den Haan family, the team at Sheldon Creek and Haanview Farms
Those who can, do.
Those who can do
more, volunteer.
