Seventy-six persons sat at the tables for this dinner with a head table of twelve persons, including the President and Mayor of Scugog. At a pause in the dinner, two of our Di- rectors who have left our community, and therefore resigned 'from the board, were honoured with a pre- sentation. Mr. Ron Deeth made suitable remarks and presented a gift to Mr. and Mrs. Jack Chambers, who had served our Board so well in the past. Mrs. Chambers, known to us on the board as "Jess", has served as Pre- sident of the Ladies' Division of our Fair for the past year, and will be greatly missed. Jack has been chairman of the Commodity Division, and last year introduced the auc- tion of Hogs at our Fair. They suitably replied, promising to return to our community next fall for our fair. The Auditors report was accepted and the financial report was presented in print- ed form by the Secretary- Treasurer. This statement, having been presented to the people as they arrived, was - accepted as printed with- out any questions being asked, indicating that the financial affairs of the society had been satisfactorily explained in print. The minutes of last year's annual meeting were adopted as read, and the communica- tions presented indicated all business matters were in good order, and no outstanding accounts or business remain- ed. The Society on motion di- rected the Treasurer to for- ward a grant in the amount of $10.00 to the Ontario County Soil and Crop Improvement Association to assist in the continuation of their fine work.

Fé rott made an informative ad- dress, reminding the mem- bers of some of the accom- plishments of the Port Perry Fair Board and thanked the Directors for their support for the last two years. He called on the Vice Presidents, Joe Baxter and Irwin Smith, who presented a delicious looking piece of pumpkin pie, containing a candle, to Mr. Fred Christie, who was celebrating his birthday on that day. Although this was a humorous event, those of the Fair Board are fully aware of the great contribution that has been made by 'OUR FRED" over the many years he has been on the Board of Directors. It was mentioned again that when Fred was elected President at the age of Twenty-one, he was, and still remains the youngest man ever to hold that office. He blew out the candle and in the hearts of all of us who know and appreciate him so much, was the wish, 'Many Happy and Healthy Returns Fred." Not forgetting the fine work of Fred's wife, Ruby, our President reminded those present of the great honour that Ruby had brought not only to our Port Perry Fair Board, but to all of District #4. At the Convention of the "Association of Agricultural Societies for the Province of Ontario' to be held in the Ro- yal York Hotel in Toronto on February 20th and 21st, our own Ruby Christie will be installed as President of the Ladies' Section of this Asso- ciation for our Province, so we trust many of our Direc- tors will be present on this occasion to show how proud we are of Ruby. So '"'Congra- tulations Ruby, we are proud of you." Dinner music had been play- ed by Mr. Paul Kemp, who vas shown appreciation by those attending at this time. Our Mayor, Jerry Taylor, spoke briefly of the fine spirit of co-operation between the fair board and the council and pledge continuing sup- port. This part of the meeting drawing to a close, all offices of the Society were declared vacant. Mr. Ivan Bell, Agri- cultural Representative for our area was asked to accept the chair for the election of Directors for the 1980 year, for the Port Perry Agricult- ural Society. Marjory Wana- maker was appointed to act as secretary for the election of Directors. Mr. Bell read the report of the Nominating Committee who had met some weeks ago and prepared a list of nominees for said offices. Mr. Bell stated all those per- sons named had been pre- viously contacted and signi- fied their acceptance of the nomination and willingness to stand for election to office of Director or assistant. Mr. Bell then called for any additional nominations from the meeting. There being none, he proclaimed those named persons elected by acclamation for the year 1980. The concluding business arising was the appointment of Mr. Charles Willes and Mr. Kenneth Skerratt as Auditors for the Fair Board books and accounts for the year 1980. On motion duly made and resolved, the 1979 Annual Meeting of the Port Perry Agricultural Society was adjourned. Since no officers do now exist for the Fair Board, a short meeting of the Directors was held. On motion duly re- solved, Glenn Wanamaker accepted the chair for the election of Officers for the new year. After explaining the officers to be elected and the requirements for a se- cretary-treasurer, the follow- ing people were elected to office. President, Mr. Joe Baxter; Ist Vice President, Irwin Smith; 2nd Vice President, Arnold Kerry. For the ladies' division - President, Mrs. Norene Crosier; Vice Presi- dent, Margaret Ann Lamb. All these persons agreed to accept the office to which they had been elected, so at this time the chair was accepted by our new president, Joe Bax- ter. Our Vice Chairman, Irwin Smith had arranged some en- tertainment and introduced Mrs. Grace Hasting and a group of singers from the Scugog Choral Society, who sang several songs known and appreciated by all present. The group was suitably thank- ed and applauded by those present. "Back to business again," said President Joe, so for the 1980 year Marjory and Glenn Wanamaker were hired as secretary-treasurers, and Glenn as barn superintendent and grounds handyman. The minutes of the last Di- rectors meeting, as well as correspondence, was then read by the secretary, and any ac- tion necessary directed. The President recognized those people present who, though not Directors, had so very ably assisted in the successful operation of our Beef Buffet, Amateur Show, and Miss Port Perry Fair Pageant, All were applauded in appreciation. The President then asked Ron Deeth to again perform a service to our fair board and he suitably made re- marks of appreciation to our retiring President of the last two years, Grant Parrott and Sheila his wife as well as their entire family. He then presented them with a beau- tiful book entitled, "This Land and These People." Grant and Sheila, although surprised, replied, pledging their continued support. President Baxter then spoke of some of his hopes and plans for our fair, among them being the suggestion that we might look at the possibility of a three day fair in the future. Our head table was ad- orned with a lovely centre piece of fresh flowers. This was presented to the couple being married for the great- est number of years. Amid applause this was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Herman Kerry, a long time Director and now an Honourary Life member of our Fair Board. No further business being presented, the President cal- led for motions authorizing the secretary-treasurer to pay bills and conduct the finan- cial business as directed by the Board of Directors. The Directors meeting was the adjourned to the call of the President, and the local press as well as a represent- ative of radio, had an op- portunity to take pictures and interview the officers for 1980.
