Persoanally as I've been saying all along,2 swaps a week is too many.If you book 1 swap each week at a different location,I think you will get bigger crowds.We have 3 TSC's that we meet at,have 1 at each once a month.You can keep the 1st week for one store the 2nd week at another 3 rd at another and leave the 4th open for agways or anyone else.But if you keep week 1 at (for example)milford, it will be at milford every month the 1st week and hopefully no one will get confused.week 2 merrimack the 2nd sat or sun(just one)3rd week chichester.This way there is 1 swap every week and it doesn't become a second job loading and unloading.Just my 2 cents worth.
In N.H,Tony.

In answer to the name problems
When gyspy stepped down,
She forbid the use of the name NH MARKET FAIR.
I consulted My Attourney and was told to drop the NH.
the name change was of necessity-not by choice.
the name on the signs and the flyers and threads is now chicken swap and market fair.
this was to keep the name as close as possible to the original name.

it was my impression that we were dropping the nh and calling it market fair/chicken swap.
and i feel, and i may be wrong here, but since i was the one that started the whole thing with cheryl that maybe i could have a say!!??

You said you wanted the name changing to stop .
The signs, flyers, threads ,stores ,new venders ,etc. are all on the same page now.
So lets end all of the name stuff and move on to swapsand haveing fun with all our frends again and make some money at the same time OK.

A friend of mine bought 2 young hatchery chicks from me. She told me that one died after 3 weeks, but the other one was adopted by her rooster and pretty much raised by him. it later turned out that the chick was a boy instead of the girl the hatchery said it was.

Cool, My partner Shawn grew up working on farms, and the two of us have never seen this before, maybe because we worked on "large scale flocks" It's actually pretty cool to see it happen. We originally put her in there to shut him up

But he's really taken a liking to her, and it's great to see.
