Email me your auction consignments no later than end of February so I can get them posted on the club’s web site and the HOAGBA Facebook Group page. Our Craigslist posts to got flagged last fall so I don’t think we’ll post there this spring unless we can figure out what to do about being flagged. You can also post consignments and pictures directly to the HOAGBA Facebook Group page, but the post will not be available for viewing until it has been approved by one of the administrators. This precaution was taken to insure that the group page does not become a junk posting page. I will copy these posts and pictures and transfer them to the club web site. '
Motel information is posted on the club web site. Book early. Due to Fair Board concerns, no one is allowed to sleep in the office building Thursday or Friday nights.
We are planning a Friday lunch for the people who help us with the Friday check in. The club will supply paper plates, napkins, plastic table wear, water/pop and meat which Dennis Connolly will prepare. Volunteers please
