Maxine Glass, Lucy Glass, Ann Loe, Margie Reed and I worked Monday and Tuesday as volunteers at the county fair. Janice Callicott worked Monday putting up the C&C Extension Homemakers booth. We were happy our booth won a blue ribbon and Best of Show' award. Janice and I carried our booth to Hope Sunday to enter in the Southwest Arkansas District Fair, which will be going on all this week.
