Our Senior Ambassador is Jennifer Rentner from Clearview! Growing up in a supportive family, Jennifer has always been encouraged to pursue her passions and give back to the community. Alongside her sister Elise, she shared the stage as a fiddling performance partner, and together they inspired audiences across the region.
Music has always been at the heart of her life—she plays piano, fiddle, clarinet, bass clarinet, and alto saxophone. Her passion led her to earn a Bachelor of Music with Honours in Music Education and a Minor in French at Western University, followed by a Bachelor of Education at Queen’s. She has served as a volunteer conductor, instructor, mentor, and representative for music education initiatives, building strong leadership, teamwork, and communication skills.
Alongside her love of music, she enjoys softball, skiing, and ATVing, and she hopes to become a high school music and French teacher. Dedicated, positive, and community-minded, she is honoured to represent the values of agriculture, volunteerism, and local talent that make the Great Northern Exhibition so special. Please say Hi to Jen when you see her in the community!
