Never a Dull Day for Agri-Crew Members The Canadian Statesman. Mowmanville, July 15. 1087 15 There s no such thing as a dull day for these Agri-Crew members. From left: Ktchaid Makt, Yvonne Youngberg, and Penny Beckett, help to put some stray fencing wire on the truck. The crew has been hard at work since June 22, and have had a large variety of jobs including hoeing pumpkins and trimming Christ- mas trees. Everything from hoeing pumpkins, to shovelling mink manure, to cleaning out barns and painting is on the agenda for one group of Agri-crew members. Yvonne Youngberg, Penny Beckett and Richard Maki are three of the four member crew that travels throughout the Durham Region Region as part of the provin- cially-spbnsored summer experience program. On July 10, they were hard at work at the home of Blaikie and Roy Rowsell, in Enniskillen. One member, Todd Yarrow, was out with the flu so the others were picking up the slack. While Penny was working staining the Rowsells' patio, Yvonne and Richard were cleaning up some fencing wire on the 100-acre plus crop sharing farm. As they broke for lunch, the cool jug of lemonade made by Mrs. Rowsell was much appreciated. "This has been one of our best work sites," said team leader Yvonne. "Many people don't take the time to even make a jug of lemonade," she added. Though the team members members are expected to bring their own lunch with them, the extras certainly help the day along. Penny, who has always lived on or near a farm, says she joined the program because because of her love of farming. She also enjoys having weekends off, so she can show beef cattle in the local 4-H club. Even with certain government government imposed safety regulations, regulations, such as no operation operation of machinery on roads, or no second-storey work, the team still has a wide variety of work sites. "We don't really get stuck in any one job," says Yvonne and that suits the group just fine. Sixteen-year-old Richard, of Newcastle, heard about the program through Clarke High School. While jokingly saying saying that there is a difference difference between the amounts of work that each crew member does, it is obvious that everyone works very hard. For Roy Rowsell, that is the advantage of the prog ram. He has hired Argi- crews for the past several years, and has always been satsified with their work. While farming is not the Rowsells' main interest, there are still plenty of chores around the property.' The team was scheduled for one more day there, and will return later in the summer summer for a few more days. Farmers can only hire the group for five days maximum for the summer season. Their popularity is evident, as theirschcdulc is booked almost to mid-August, mid-August, when the program is finished. Being the only crew in this area, the team travels extensively. They will make stops in Port Hope, Uxbridge, Uxbridge, and even Markham, where they do some fencing for a sheep farm. While the rest of the summer summer stretches before them, all members will be returning returning to school in the fall. They'll be a little sorer, a little richer, a little wiser, knowing that every minute of it was worth it.
