Now we need to step up to the plate and execute! I agreed to several tasks on the list that was circulated a couple of weeks ago. That list dovetails well in to this one.

Bring your favorite food and share with everyone. There is a rumor going around that the Fair has notified us that we must vacate the facility by the end of 2020. NOT!! There is no truth to this rumor. As mentioned in the business meetings, we have been working on a proposal to the fair to clean up and improve what we have and request a 4-5 year guarantee of our existence in the the current building which will give us the opportunity to further improve our image and value with the fair and enhance the fair experience. The goal being to possibly secure another location on the grounds if and when our building is removed. I've attached the proposal which was submitted to the Jerome last Tuesday. He was off all week so won't review it until next week. We hope to meet with him before Christmas to further discuss. If Jerome accepts a significant part of the proposal, it will take some effort on everyone's part to to make it happen. We can't just set back and be resigned that it's all going away. The half a dozen people who have been working in the strategy can't make it happen by themselves. Let's see what kind of reaction we get from Jerome and we'll go from there. I am leaving tomorrow on a two week business trip. Since I get back on December 7 and we are celebrating one of my sons birthday that evening, I will miss the pot luck. Everyone have a great holiday season!
