PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
On behalf of the Beachburg Agriculture Society, the board of
directors, committee members and the many other volunteers
who have a part in putting the fair together; we want to
encourage you to come out to experience what a rural fair has
to offer.
The theme for the 159th Beachburg Fair is “Celebrating a Century
of 4-H in Ontario”. 4-H clubs across the province of Ontario
play a vital role in our communities and give our youth the skills
to become strong leaders for the future. BAS is proud to have
many events at our fair that involve our local 4-H clubs. We
support these young leaders and look forward to watching as
they work to achieve their goals. It is our hope that 4-H in
Ontario can live on another century, and keep encouraging our
youth to “ Learn to do by doing” , making our Agricultural
future thrive.

Up on the Pinnacle
Where the majestic red maple rears its head
And the flowers are neatly tucked in their bed.
As the poplar leaves sway softly in the breeze,
It whispers its secrets to the other trees.
Up on the Pinnacle
The mighty oak towers over its rural domain
And when seasons come and go its roots will remain.
The garden is planted and it remains to be seen
If the rain that falls gently will turn it to green.
Up on the Pinnacle
The robin is nesting in the cedar tree
Where her babies have hatched and soon will be free.
The butterflies float on the clear, blue sky
With barely a flutter as they silently fly by.
Up on the Pinnacle
The Blue Jay's squawk can clearly be heard
Not as a songstress but, still, a beautiful bird.
The crimson cardinal's song is a pleasure to hear
Amidst the tranquility the sound is sweet and clear.
Up on the Pinnacle
Along the winding trail, behind the clapboard house
You can hear the singing frogs and the scurry of a mouse
The yellow-bellied sapsucker pecks out a rat-a-tat-a-tat
Upon the metal aerial that's fastened on the shed out back.
Up on the Pinnacle
The hollyhocks sir beside the brightly striped chair
Where the little, golden puppy is lounging there.
The sights, the sounds, the smells are all here
In my little piece of heaven I hold so dear.
