Don't Forget Your Thank Yous!
Article Posted On: Monday 16 August 2010 at 7:44 pmWe certainly hope everyone had an enjoyable time at the fair this year. It sure was hot and sweaty outside, but all of the junior fair members, junior goat council members, and junior fair board members did a great job in helping out. Congratulations to all junior fair participants...you all are winners regardless of the placing you may have received! Now that fair is over and the market sale has been completed...there are two important pieces of information left to be completed. First...if you have not already done so, feed records must be turned in to the extension office by August 31, so make sure you know how your club is handling that. Also and very important...remember to take a few moments to thank your buyers! Hopefully you know who purchased your market project, if not look on your check or call the sales office for the details. Take time to write out a personal thank you to your buyer(s), and perhaps even include a picture as many will hang in their place of business. Don't forget to do the same on any trophy sponsors, prize sponsors (such as skillathon), and other awards you may have received. We want to support our buyers and sponsors and show our appreciation, so they can continue to proudly support our junior fair! And next year...hang a thank you sign on your pen to your buyers to offer a final thanks and show others that you appreciate their support! Thanks to everyone for a successful junior fair in 2010....and now it is time to start working on next year!
