This might be easier for you to find openings. Thanks to Jen Vieth and Kate Kelnberger for organizing the MOU booth and scheduling staffing every year. -----Original Message----- From: Minnesota Birds [mailto:MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU] On Behalf Of MOU Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2021 1:41 PM To: MOU-NET@LISTS.UMN.EDU Subject: [mou-net] State Fair (Posted by Anthony X. Hertzel <axhert...@gmail.com> via moumn.org) This year the fair runs from August 26 through September 6. Our booth will be in the same location as past years at the DNR building. We have to apply to be selected for the booth every year and we are grateful for the opportunity to promote MOU, birds and bird conservation to do many people. It's also a lot of fun talking about birds with fair-goers of all ages. We will have the bird quiz wheel and bird hand stamps for kids, NEW designs of the MOU bird bookmarks, flyers from bird-focused non-profits like Friends of the Sax Zim Bog, etc. As in past years we must fill three four hour shifts for a full day from 9 am to 9 pm. Each shift is hosted by two amazing MOU volunteers. If you volunteer for the booth your state fair ticket is covered by MOU and will be mailed to you before the fair. (Of course you may prefer to purchase your own tickets and MOU thanks you for that extra donation.) This year we are trying something new for signing up since our Google calendar system hasn't worked all that well for a few years. This year we are using "sign up genius" and so far everyone seems to find it straight forward to navigate. As normal, Kate Kelnberger and I are always available by phone or email if you would like help signing up for a shift or have any questions. The following shifts were still open as of Sunday night, July 18: Thursday August 26 5-9 p.m. One opening volunteering with Kate Kelnberger Friday August 27 5-9 p.m. One opening volunteering with Steven Houdek Saturday August 28 9-1 one opening volunteering with Benjamin Fritchman1-5 TWO openings 5-9 TWO openings Sunday August 29 Everything is OPEN Monday August 30 Everything is FULL Tuesday August 31 Everything is FULL Wednesday September 1 Everything is FULL Thursday September 25-9 pm one opening volunteering with Shelley Bowman Friday September 3 5-9 pm one opening volunteering with Steven Houdek Saturday September 4 Everything is OPEN Sunday September 5 Everything is OPEN Monday September 6 9-1 two spots open/ 1-5 one spot open volunteering with Joann Pfeiffer/ 5-9 two spots open Sign up genius link: https://www.signupgenius.com/index.cfm?go=s.signup&urlid=4090a4aa4a82ea7f85- 2021&view=standard Thanks for supporting MOU- MOU volunteers Jen Vieth & Kate Kelnberger ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html During the pandemic, the MOU encourages you to stay safe, practice social distancing, and continue to bird responsibly. ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html During the pandemic, the MOU encourages you to stay safe, practice social distancing, and continue to bird responsibly. ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html During the pandemic, the MOU encourages you to stay safe, practice social distancing, and continue to bird responsibly.
