On Saturday afternoon a group of about 12-15 Ontario Pumpkin Growers met during the International Seminar. This group included Al & Sharon Eaton, Chris & John Lyons, Drew Papez, Dave McCallum, Morgan Inglis, Bob McKenzie, Phil Joynson, Adrian Gervais, Russ Landry, others and myself. The purpose of this meeting was to see if there was enough interest in forming an Ontario Pumpkin & Giant Veg. Growers Club. During this meeting it was decided to appoint a committee to proceed with this venture. I was asked to chair this panel, along with the help of my wife Jane (Sec & Tres), Drew Papez (Southern Region), Glen Cheam (Eastern Region), Russ Landry (Central Region) and maybe Doug Court (Western Region). We are looking for your suggestions on club policies and events. Your input is very important to us. Send any suggestions to me and I will present them to the committee. Also, we are looking to get some help with setting up a web site, logo and name. I will be contacting Drew, Glen, Doug & Russ to try and set up a meeting soon. Details will be announced as soon as we can. Drew Papez announced that Niagara’s weigh-off date would be changed to another weekend. This will give growers another venue to weigh in their other fruits. We hope that you will join us in this venture to keep Ontario on top of the pumpkin growing community.

I'd be happy to help out with working on a website (either alone or as part of a team). I can't compete with super web nerds. But, I am enough of a nerd to put up a clean and useful site with a bit of sparkle.
