SENIOR LIVING Bruce and Eileen Nixon of Norval will be honoured with a Lifetime Membership award from Jersey Canada, recogniz- ing their contributions to the Jersey breed, dairy industry and local community. The pre- sentation will be made at the Jersey Canada annual meeting in Winnipeg this month. The Rosalea Jersey herd was started by Bruce's father John in 1928. Originally, a red clo- ver seed business and dairy herd began in Streetsville. The Norval farm of 200 acres was bought in 1957 and Bruce joined the business. In 2007, the farming op- eration was moved to new fa- cilities near Rockwood, now under the management of the third and fourth generation, John and Cathy Nixon and family. Bruce and Eileen were mar- ried in 1949 and raised a fam- ily of six girls and one son. They were all very involved in 4-H, Jersey youth rallies and local fairs with the youngest offspring, John, taking over the management of the farm. Bruce was a community leader with the Brampton Fair Board, Halton Federation of Agriculture, Halton Milk Committee, church elder and school board trustee. Bruce was an active member of the Halton Jersey Club, represent- ing Halton on the board of directors for Ontario Jersey Club, and Provincial President in 1987. Bruce was selected as Hal- ton County Farmer of the Year in 1988. Eileen was always an integral part of the farm, and among other duties, cared for the calves. They have always been ac- tive in the dairy shows at four local shows, the Parish show at Erin Fair, the Richmond Hill Spring show and the Roy- al Winter Fair. All Canadian awards have been won too for the excellence of their animals in the show ring. Bruce and Eileen continue to live at Norval and celebrat- ed their 64th wedding anniver- sary. They enjoy weekly visits to the current home of Rosalea Jerseys and seeing the continu- ing progress of the farm. Norval couple earn Jersey Canada lifetime membership award The Spring and Summer Town of Halton Hills Commu- nity Activity and Service Guide is now available. If you didn't receive your copy we have cop- ies at the Centre. It has lots of in- teresting events and community phone numbers listed for your convenience. The 55 plus pages and Active Living pages are of special interest. There is a list of items needed for the GST auction lunch in front of the reception desk. We need all the help we can get to make this a success. The fundraising com- mittee have been busy soliciting items from various businesses in Halton Hills and we thank them for their generosity. If you would like to donate an article, service or talent that is suitable for the auction please contact Myra Sar- tor at the Centre. Lunch on Friday, March 13 will be pea soup and an assort- ment of sandwiches plus desert. You can phone the Centre if you would like to be added to the list. The following Friday (March 21) we will "catch up" with the Swiss Chalet lunch that was cancelled due to the icy conditions. We are starting to look at what will be stored and which items will be needed at our tem- porary locations during the three months of renovations. If you would like some of the paper- back or hardcover books please help yourself. Not the Reference art books. The travel desk asked me to mention the trip planned for March 13 to Niagara had to be cancelled due to lack of interest. The weekly 50/50 draw was not won so the total prize money should be around $325. Acton Seniors Centre offers books to make room for renovations By JULIE CONROY Acton Seniors Centre
