Be sure to read the minutes.
Fair entry forms are due on Monday, July 15. Please bring it if you wish for Cindy to turn it in. We’ll have the premium book so we can help with filling in Departments and Class numbers. Scroll to the footer on this website under Helpful Links to download the Entry Form. If you are in Horse or Dog that is the separate form, and some members might need multiple entry forms. If you are in livestock you have fees and the Code of Ethics Form as well.
Only 3 members are currently signed up for demonstrations! That means everyone else has their demo done. Right?!? If not and you’re not sure what to do, please contact Cindy or Anita.
County shoots have begun. Best wishes to all of you competing in shooting sports!
Anita and Cindy will be available at Construction Supply House starting at 6:00 p.m. on July 26 to review and sign record books while club members work on the float.
Parade Float Building Meetup on July 14
There will be a meetup to work on the High Country Handiworkers parade float on July 14 from 2:00–5:00 p.m. at the Mann home in Johnstown. The address is 25351 Heritage Court, Johnstown, CO 80534. You can contact Phylicia Mann at 970-515-2789 or racingmsdaisy@gmail.com.
Items needed for the float:
- Multicolored bandanas for the fabric for “covered wagons” • Ferris wheel baskets: 8–12 rectangle woven baskets with handles (all the same size color and type). These are going to be the wagon bodies for the covered wagons/ferris wheel baskets.
- Acrylic paint packs of small brushes for detail.
- Large zip ties (20).
- Hand-held pinwheels for the kids to hold on the float.
Got Wagon Wheels?
We are in search of Wagon Wheels! Do you have a pair of 48″ or 54″ wagon wheels we could borrow? They would be used for our club’s float in the Larimer County Fair Parade on Saturday, July 27. We are happy to pick them up and return them in the same condition. Please email if you have some you’re willing to lend to our club. Thank you!
