Hi Everyone,
I am working on the Archuleta County Fair Board this year, and we could use some help at the Fair! Here are a few of the things going on:
A week from today (Thursday, the 4th) is the first day of the fair and also our First Thursday Out (FTO) for HOPS. We will be meeting at the beer tent at the fair around 6:00pm, and we could use some help pouring / serving the beer that will be on tap from Pagosa Brewing Co. If you have never done this type of thing before, it is actually quite fun! All you need to do is show up. Remember, on Thursday the 4th, we are excepting non-perishable donations to get you into the Fair. So bring some canned food and if you can help pour, that would be cool too.
Saturday, the 6th HOPS will be brewing a batch of beer at the fair next to the beer tent as a homebrew demonstration (from roughly 11-4 Pagosa time). If you are interested in helping out with this event, let me know. I can probably get you free admission if you are there to help. If you just want to hang out and drink beer with us, that's cool too! You just may have to pay the $6 entry fee... ;-)
Other volunteering opportunities: As a Fair Board member, I can tell you the fair as a whole is severely underhanded this year. We normally need about 150 volunteers and right now (only a week away) we only have about 70. If you can lend a hand with the fair this year (even for only a couple hours) PLEASE let me know. We could really use you!
Thanks, and look forward to seeing everyone on Thursday!
Cheers ~
