You may have noticed that our website has had a little facelift! Congratulations to Joy Smith! Her logo received the most votes at Monday’s Fair Association meeting. The logo and the slogan ‘Meet Us at the Gate!’ will be the theme for the 2008 Island County Fair. The colors will be barn red and denim blue. Among other things, Joy is the open class superintendent of Sewing and Needlework. Way to go Joy!
New Association officers were selected at the meeting. Pictured (l-r) are Barbara Pearson, Secretary; Bill Carruthers, Treasurer; Diane Divelbess, President; Ken Schillinger, Board Member and Klass Zuiderbann, Board Member. Lynda Knapp (not pictured) is Vice President.
Other happenings at the meeting was a special appearance by the Pink Ladies from Fair Convention showcasing the First Place and Sweepstakes Grand Awards we won for the Scrapbook. The only point taken off the score was because it’s heavy. That means it’s packed with stuff from the 2007 Fair. You should swing by the Fair Office sometime and check it out. You might even find yourself in there! Judi Slepyan was also on hand with the 2nd Place ribbon she won for her photo submission of Karen Quest. Check it out in the October 22nd blog!
All in all, it was a great meeting! Listen, if you’re reading this and you’re feeling like you missed out on all the fun, don’t be sad, consider joining the Fair Association! We are always looking for volunteers. It’s fun and exciting and it helps your Fair. Email us if you would like more information.
