DEF Council
Plans Meeting
On Fall Fair
"The next meeting of the Desert
Empire Fair Advisory Council of
. Clubs, Monday, August 23, is
exceedingly critical to planning for
the fall fair (September 29 through
October 3), and all delegates are
urged to be present or send
representatiyes, " said Rae
Leonard, Council chairman and
coordinator for the midway.
This important session, to be
held at 8 p.m. in tbe Knights of
ColUmbus Hall, is just barely in
advance of deadline date for
publishing of the 1971 Souvenir
Booklet, editor Roy Martin
reminds organizations who wish to
be represented in the booklet.
" Delegates should come
authorized to purchase a display
advertisement at $15 and submit
copy approved by their groups," he
said.
Lou Sidney, purchasing agent for
the Board of Directors, is anxious
to receive orders for supplies that
concessionaires will require at this
meeting or before. "The more time
we have to solicit bids for volwne
buying, the more we can hold down
the overhead for all," he said. In
situations where operators have
made their own arrangements for
supplies, the purchasing office has
to have these details as well.
Books of advance ride tickets to
be sold by organizations on a
commission basis will be available
that night, the Board advises.
These books, distributed locally at
$1, contain tickets good for
carnival rides for one-half or less
of what they would cost during the
fair. A block of books may be
drawn by duly constituted
organizations other than those
affiliated with the Council.'
Another reason for the urgency
of the coming meeting is a pooling
of opinions regarding aluminum
pavilions that may be erected in
front of the food booths. "Zip"
Mettenburg, president of the
Board, has previously submitted
plans for tbese, with tentative
costs, and is currently
investigating similar structures.
He will make a report at the
August 23 meeting so that
delegates present can take definite
proposals back to their clubs for a
yes or no vote in time to have tbe
shades in place for the fair. Since
each pavilion is long enough to
protect a "duplex" booth, the two
clubs sharing one permanent
building will be expected to come
to an agreement and share
expenses. In previous informal
discussion, enthusiasm ran high
for this investment in comfort and
convenience for booth workers and
otber fairgoers alike.
