4-H Ontario hosts grand opening in Rockwood

4-H Ontario is throwing open the doors at their new provincial office in Rockwood, for an official grand opening on Oct. 25.

The grand opening will take place as an open house at 111 Main Street North, Rockwood, from 3pm to 7pm, with speeches and a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 4pm.

4-H Ontario moved into the commercially-zoned century home on April 2. The organization is excited to host the local community, stakeholders, and public officials for this celebration in their new home.

Debra Brown, interim executive director of 4-H Ontario, said, “We’re very proud to have reached a stage in our organization’s existence where owning property is both feasible and beneficial to our longevity. We look forward to showcasing this unique, historical building and welcoming in our stakeholders and supporters for an official visit.”

Brown continued, “This new office location will provide a showcase for 4-H Ontario’s storied history, which is ideal as we approach our 100th anniversary in 2015.”
