She reported on the guest speaker from Clarinda, door prizes, individual awards, and Nikki Hunter was the top drawing winner. Tami will get t-shirts to those who volunteered. Food was provided by River Rock Lanes and Paigstries. It was noted that some of the quilt racks will need to be repaired or replaced before next year’s show due to normal wear and tear.
