IPM chair makes pitch for volunteer involvement

Volunteers will be needed from the county when Wellington hosts the International Plowing Match  from Sept. 20 to 24, 2016, says event chair Ron Faulkner.

While volunteer recruitment efforts in the northern part of the county, where the match will be held on the Harriston-area property of Anne and Earl Schneider, have gone well, Faulkner said, “We do need talent from all over the county for this great event.”

In total, more than 1,200 volunteers will be needed, with the majority active the week before and the week of the match. Volunteers can pick up forms at the Minto municipal office. The IPM website www.plowingmatch.org contains information on volunteering and an application form.
