The MOU is once again, hosting a booth at the fair. The booth is
located on the south side of the DNR building- the same side as the fish
ponds. The booth will be open from 9:00AM-9:00PM. We are recruiting
volunteers (2 per shift) to host the booth in four hour shifts: 9:00AM-1:00PM
(arrive at 8:30 to set up) 1:00PM-5:00PM and 5:00PM-9:00PM (last shift puts
away displays in DNR building). Volunteers will be sent fair passes.
The booth is streamlined this year to allow more time for volunteers
to share their interest in birds and bird conservation with interested fair-
goers. Please consider signing up for a shift (or two,or more!) We have
many volunteers who have returned each year the MOU has had the booth- a
tribute to our loyal volunteers and the "fun-factor" of the experience.
There are two ways to sign up:
email or call Jen Vieth: [email protected]
tel: 651-270-4736 or

OR use the Google Calendar:
1. Go to the Google home page
2. Look at the black bar along the top of your screen and click on the
work "Calendar".
3. Let the page load, then look for the gray "sign In" box on the right hand
side of your screen.
4. In the "email" box enter "mouvolunteer".
5. In the password box enter "ilovemou".
6. Click the small blue "sign in" button below the "password" box.
7. Let the page load, then you should see a calendar with today's date
highlighted. It will probably be in the weekly-view format.
8. Use the left-right arrow tabs at the top left hand side of the calendar
to scroll to the State Fair dates: (Aug. 23-Sept. 3, 2012).
9. You will see the available shifts highlighted in red. (In the monthly-
view format the shifts won't be highlighted.)
10. Click on the red background of the shift you want to sign up for. You
will see a white box pop up that has the "event name" and a few details.
11. Click directly on the title of the event in the white box. For example
you would click exactly on the words "shift two".
12. The title will then be opened for you to add your name. When you are
done, it should look like this: "shift 2: John Smith and Jane Smith."
13. Click the light gray "save" button in the lower right hand side of the
white pop-up box.
14. The pop-up box will close and you will be returned to the calendar page.

information has changed.
SEE YOU AT THE FAIR!
