Ag hall searches for nominees

The Kent Agricultural Hall of Fame Association is seeking nominations for its hall of fame.

The association recognizes those individuals who have demonstrated unselfish achievement within the realm of agriculture and service to the rural community of Chatham-Kent and beyond.

If you know someone – a family member, friend, neighbour, co-worker – living or deceased – who you feel has met this standard over their lifetime or career, the Kent Agricultural Hall of Fame’s board of directors wants to hear from you.

Its members are asking the public to submit nominations for hall of fame worthy citizens of Chatham-Kent.

The submission deadline for nominations is March 31.

Successful nominees are recognized at an induction ceremony, typically held in November.

Nominations submitted after the cut-off date will be considered the following year.

To date, 209 of Kent County’s most accomplished individuals in the agricultural community – including primary production, extension and research, education, government, business and stewardship – have been recognized.

For more information, and a copy of the nomination form, go to the Kent Agricultural Hall of Fame website – www.chatham-kent.ca/aghof – or contact Kathryn Vanek at 519-683-2929 or [email protected].
