Hi Everyone,
At the last meeting I spoke about our club doing a display booth at the 
state fair. For those of you who were not there here is a recap.

 Every year at the state fair there is a bee display. Several of the 
county chapters set up display booths that educate the public about 
honey bees. Our club has participated the last two years and won 1^st 
prize the first year. The booths are judged based on the education 
value, attractiveness and quality. The state fair is held around the 
second or third week of October and I would like to get a group together 
so we can start planning what we would like to do for our display this 
year. We can have any theme we want as long as it has to do with 
beekeeping. We would probably need to meet once in the near future to 
come up with a plan and then again closer to the time of the fair to put 
it all together. We would also need people to help set it up and take it 
down at the state fair. Members can also enter other bee related 
products for judging and display those in our booth as well. Even if you 
are not able to help plan and participate setting the booth up, you 
could provide materials for the display. This is a lot of fun. Please 
let me know if you are interested in helping out with this, have ideas, 
etc. as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Becky
