The event will be there again this Friday and actually through October. As it is not on the “grounds”, it will not be a hindrance to us. However, the Alameda Fall Home Show starts on this coming Friday and is in Building A. They close at 5:00 in the afternoon. I had a discussion with Harry earlier today and he agreed we can drive in on Friday, but not until 6:30. If you have your heart set on being earlier, please let me know so I can let them know that we might have a few walk ins. Otherwise, drive in thru the Yellow gate starting at 6:30. Knowing the Fair, if you got there a little earlier, you might be able to get in, but I didn’t tell you that. <o:p></o:p><o:p> </o:p>Reminder: Friday is the business. The nominating committee should report on a potential slate of officers for the election which is on the November business meeting. <o:p></o:p><o:p> </o:p>Gary<o:p></o:p></div></body></html>
