I wish to thank in particular the members of the Board of Directors and Committee Chairmen who, from the first to the last day of our year, carried out their responsibility with keen interest and dedication, and they can be justifiably proud of their achievements. To Shirley Tomblin, our Administrative I wish to express my sincere thanks for her help and support not only toward me but to Ollr whole Club. And finally to you, our members, you make things happen and your interest in our varied activities ensured their success, thank you.

Page 3 REPORT OF THE AGRICULTURE, CONSERVATION & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE FOR 1977-78 To: The President and Members, Kiwanis Club of Ottawa, Inc. I am pleased to report on behalf of the members of the Agriculture, Conservation and Environment Committee for the 1977-78 club year. This committee is very enthusiastic and enables members to become involved in many community and social activities of our Club. 1. Ottawa Winter Fair Greg Field and myself attended and presented the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa Trophy at the Fair in October 1977. This t.rophy· 1s the oldest trophy at the Fair and awarded to a 4-H club judged to have the finest calf entry at the Ottawa Winter Fair. Photos of the presentation are on file at the Kiwanis Office. The 1977 winners were Lauri McRae, Kathy McRae and Diann%f the Lanark County 4-H Club. Lackey 2. Ken Wynkie Memorial - for environment It was agreed that this trophy would be suitably situated with the Key Club committee rather than with this committee. Accordingly the trophy was transferred to the care of the Key Club Committee for their use. 3. Carp Pancake Supper Once again this committee participated in the Annual Pancake Supper at the Carp Fair grounds in co-operation with the Carp Agricultural Society. This event was a highlight in that community drawing a very large crowd of about 300 persons. Our guest speaker was the Hon. Eugene Wh e l an , Federal Minister of Agriculture who suitably addressed the gathering. It was at this gathering that the C.A.S. was granted class A Fair status. It is recommended to the incoming chairman that an accurate count of Kiwanis member ticket sales be provided in advance of the evening. Photos of this evening are on file in the Kiwanis Office. It should be noted that the presentation of flowers is welcomed by the ladies and should not be dropped. John Cole is recognized for his generous donation of plants· for this year's event. 4. Kiwanis Country Soiree Charlie & Ruth Roney are indeed very excellent hosts. This year they provided once again good weather and grand surroundings for a wonderful evening of fun, food and music as well as the usual good time enjoyed at TIGHLACH FARM. Many new members were introduced to this annual social event hosted by this committee and it is hoped it will continue next year. 5. Carp Fair 1978 - Sept. 22 - 23 This committee responded to a request by the carp Agricultural Society to assist in the cost of a building which would house the "STORY BOOK FARM", a project of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa. In total $5,000.00 was donated this year toward this venture.
