ACTION: Jim talked about Fair in 2019. Much discussion on the Staff shortage in Office. Christina Abbott and Jim Wolcott will look for software to implement.

Becky wants to see if Dena would be willing to compile an instruction book on the Administration side of duties to help a new person to learn procedures. Aaron Albaugh expressed that it is not understood what it takes to run a Fair. Aaron also mentioned that a RFP for racing will go out and it then will be taken to the County. Aaron then suggested to Holly Mueller and Jim Wolcott that it would be good to get the Jr. Fair Board in front of the Board of Supervisors. It would be good for training and growth.
