<div dir="auto">Gentlemen,
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">We had a good opening day. Thought I would share a
few things.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">The scavenger hunt cards were an excellent idea.
That really got the kids engaged and they loved it. That said we will
need more of those printed out and more pencils, as we go through them
pretty quick. Lets consider putting some at the back door because some
people got to the front and wished we had them at the back.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Some kids submitted them to me fully filled out and
asked if there was a prize. I let them have at the donated
magazines/tyco box, but ongoing maybe we can get some ribbons from the
fair or something like the other exhibits give out.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I took Dick's advice to talk to everyone possible
while on the chair. It was good advice, we got some good engagement and
contacts. When I told some about our tenuous situation staying in the
building they said "oh no I will send a letter to the fair" so that's
good PR we need.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Also, one person I talked to was from the county
housing department and took offense to the use of the word "hobo" on
the scavenger hunt, as it reflects badly on our region's homeless.
Perhaps we can just call it "campfire." Now, I'm sure many of you have
different opinions on the matter and that's fine, I'm just reporting
what was said to me.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Electrically there were a few hiccups but they were
repaired. All should be good for coming weeks.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Thanks!</div>
<div dir="auto">-Joel</div>
