IX. The Ag Carnival and the AgrAbility Auction are on Saturday, October 6th, from 10am-3pm. We will be making about 3 teams of 6-10 people. We need to host an event, so if you have any ideas bring them to the next meeting. We are leaning towards “Day in the Life of a Farmer” if it isn’t taken yet. For the AgrAbility Auction, we will need to think about asking stores on Main Street to donate prize baskets or gift certificates for the auction.
Remember that we will be meeting in Lot 19 next Wednesday at 5:30pm to go to Kilby Cream instead of our regular meeting! We will be leaving at 5:45pm, so please be sure you're there on time. See you there!
