I
thank James N. and Bruce J. for joining me yesterday and transporting our State
Fair booth from Burnsville to the State Fairgrounds, specifically on Underwood
Street about a half block north of the Ghost Mansion.
During
our journey the booth slipped off the trailer onto the road causing a temporary
tourist attraction. When arriving at the State Fair we set and leveled the booth
into place and went shopping at Menards for the new 2013 deck addition
materials. Needing to wait for site electricity set up a decision was made to
return today and resume work.
Calling
the Fair offices this morning I learned our booth was 5’ off the approved
location so the three of us met again on Underwood Street and relocated and
leveled our booth, gaining State Fair management approval of the new location
prior to leaving. Tomorrow I am hoping to assemble the new
deck.
Painting
is needed along with other amenities to complete the booth and deck before
opening day. Also party leadership is discussing purchasing a large quantity of
pencils with the CP of Minnesota logo to hand out during the fair. All this
promotion, materials, literature, and upgrading had untold dividends for our
party message but also costs money.
We
ask you to visit our campaign website now at www.cpmn.org and make a generous
contribution of $10.00, $50.00, $100.00, $500.00 or more allowing us resources
appropriate for marketing the large crowds at the Minnesota State
Fair.
