But I have many good IllL'ntJ\ in JWI and i knew leaving the branch meant I'd have less time with them. Thai part was hard.“ she exâ€" plains ()n the other hand, she hastens to add. she‘s been warmly received by the Fonthill WI. “They treat me like royalty # they‘re so happy to get )iiungcr members. We’re interested in the same ixsues and l feel my ideas are respected," Mrs. Grimwood says. She Iliinks it's a shame theJWl is getting away from il's original manâ€" date as a "bridge" between 4-H and Wm. “The two organizations aren't really that much different anymore_ I know of a JWI member who is 54 and I know of FWIO members in their ’205. . .it seems to me the Orig. inal purpose of JWI has been lost in recent years," says, Mrs. Grimwood. Rena Cunningham and Lqu Heaies are two FWIO board members who think the J W10 and FWIO now have so much in common, they might as well bcco c one group. “Why “am they il-l‘st drop the ‘Junior’?” asks Mrs. Cunningham, “We share the same aims and objec- tives and it seems a lot more could be accomplished if we pooled our resources and became one organi zation." Mrs. Heales believes both ihr FWlO and the JWIO are missing out by operating as separate organiza tions. "We could benefit from th fresh ideas brought in by youngt members and they could benefit fror the knowledge and experience of th older members," she says, adding: ‘ - wish more J WI members would rat the time to attend ‘FWIO function . . .I think they'd realize our interes: are more similar than they‘might ha: imagined.” She’ll be staying. . . Karen Lajeuncsse may be pushing 40 i but she has no plans to drop the ‘luniur' from her Women’s Institute llllc. “Just because I‘m getting close to 4“ doesn‘t mean I‘m ready to quit the JWI." says the Fonthill mother of three. who scrch as public relations ul'liccr with the Niagara District JWI. "I really enjoy doing things with the ladies in my JWI branch. and I‘d hate to break lies with that group.“ The 22~mcmber Niagara District JWI is. indeed, an impressive bunch. A quick scan of the branch's [984 and 1985 activities and a sneak peek ul il\ I986 plans help explain why Mr» Lujcuncsse remains enthusiastic about her involvement with the group. In May.
