Introduction

Hi! My name is Stephanie Campbell. I live outside of a small farming town in Southwestern Ontario called Chatham, Ontario which is part of the Municipality of Chatham-Kent , with my parents and my little sister. Coming from a primarily cash crop farm, I have grown up farming with the desire to pursue my career in the agricultural industry. I am very passionate about agriculture and I am very invovled in my community.

Personal Life

As I mentioned earlier, I am very involved in my community. I have volunteered with the Can-Skate program, teaching children how to skate. I have helped with Canadian Aid for Chernobyl and have volunteered in my local church. I was a honoured on the Passionate about Agriculture campaign by Hyland Seeds. I have completed my Standard Fist Aid and CPR C as well as my Ontario Recreational Canoe and Kayak Association level C. I am very involved in the 4-H Association in my county.

Chatham-Kent 4-H Association Involvement

I have been a member of the Chatham-Kent 4-H Association since the age of 10. Over the past 8 years, I have completed approximately 70 clubs ranging from field crop, plowing, and sheep to sewing, cooking and square dancing. I have received many opportunities through the 4-H program. In 2007 I was chosen as the Outstanding 4-H Female of the Year and recipient of the CFCO Blackburn radio group bursary. I have also been named the Top Agricultural Member of the Year, Top Secretary, and Top Youth Leader along with receiving the Gay Lee Award of Achievement and the Glen Clark Memorial trophy. I have held multiple positions within the Chatham-Kent 4-H Association such as Webmaster, Youth Director, Youth Leader, as well as various club positions.

Education and Academic Career

As a young elementry school student I attended Harwich Raleigh Pulbic School in Blenheim, Ontario. I was involved with various school events, sat on the yearbook committee, played on the basketball team and was involved with HR Idol.

As a high school student I attended Blenheim District High School in Blenheim, Ontario. Throughout my highschool career I was fortunate to be on the honour roll and upon graduating I was named an Ontario Scholar. I was also involved in various events in my high school including planning the grade eight orientation, school musicals, curling team (skip) and the enrichment program. Through the enrichment program I was given the opportunity to go to Winnipeg on an exchange and learn about the province and about different culutres and ways of living. This was a great opportunity and I got to meet a lot of great people.

I currently attend the University of Guelph in Guelph, Ontario majoring in Food, Agriculture and Resource Economics. I just finished my first year at the the University and I really enjoyed it. Over this past year I was involved in Campus for Christ, College Royal and attended a bunch of Aggie events.
