> Call for volunteers, Selkirk Chapter "Buy-a-Board for Habitat" booth at
> the North Idaho Fair.
>
> Selkirk Chapter is once again partnering with Habitat For Humanity,
> with a Buy-a-Board for Habitat booth. This year we will do the booth at
> the North Idaho Fair, at the fairgrounds in Couer d'Alene. Dates for
> this years fair are Wednesday, August 23 thru Sunday, August 27th. We
> are required by the fair to have the booth staffed from 11am to 11pm
> each day. Staffing will be shared with Habitat for Humanity
> volunteers. In past years, at Timberfest in Sandpoint, booth staff have
> found the venue excellent for opportunities to discuss forestry with the
> public who come to buy a board and look over the SAF display. In past
> years, we have made significant donations of lumber and cash to our
> partners, HFH.
>
> If you can help us in staffing the booth, please contact Bob
> Bosworth <bosworth@colcreams.com>, 208-267-2725. It would be helpful if
> you could indicate dates you would be available, and times of the day
> that best suit your availability, email address and phone number.
>
> From previous contacts, the following have indicated availability
> for staffing: Kathy O'Conner, Phil and Mary Aune, Norris Booth, Lynn
> Kaney, Bill Johnson, Bos Bosworth, Steve Bloedel, Bernie Janoski, Robin
> Miller, Ralph Cornwall. If your name is on this list, please contact
> Bos, to confirm dates and times that suit you best.
>
> I will plan to contact all volunteers the week of Aug 14th, to line
> out the schedule, and further instructions on booth location, etc.
>
> We also need a small work party on Tuesday, August 22, to set up the
> tent, set up our display, and organize the boards for sale. We should
> do this in the afternoon. Anyone who can help then, please contact Bos.
>
> We are excited about the opportunity to meet the public with this
> booth, and to make a significant contribution to our partners efforts in
> providing affordable housing. Please join us in this project.
