I have posted all of the follow-up post as they pertain to certain areas. We are coming into the home stretch ( 14 days ) so I am going to ask all members who are planning to attend POOPS to read over all the post and inform the the appropriate people of your intentions and contribute where they can, the entire success of this event depends on it.
It has come to my attention that we are lacking in several areas, Food contributions is a big concern please keep in mind that as of today we have 111 people who plan to attend, and as you can see from the food list that we are lacking in contributions here. If we cannot get enough food we will obviously only be able to have 1 mid day meal, the plan is still for 2 meals. According to the attendance list there are allot of missing contributors, some may choose to bring things at the last minute but we cannot plan effectively that way. Sooner & TJ's Na-Na are heading up the menu area please contact either of them with your welcomed contribution and quantity's so they can get a good idea of what we will have and need come game day.
T-shirt orders are another area that we thought would have more responses to, we have a deadline for ordering and that time is here I think Sunday the 13th of Sept is it. we initially wanted to have extra shirts available for sale on the day of the event this will not happen due to lack of orders, we wanted to but cannot absorb the cost of unsold shirts.
The auction areas seems to be doing well and we will have a payout system worked out very soon.
Raffles ( 2 ) seem to also be coming along but we feel that a few more items are still needed for it to be a big hit.
Static displays : we have 4-5 displays planned and they will be very good, if you have a special area that you feel you are very good at and could be of benefit to our poultry community please feel free to set one up.
I would like to personally thank all of those who are working so hard to make this POOPS event a truly fantastic endeavor, these type events take a tremendous amount of work that is not easy to see, and are sometimes not easy to get them to come together effortlessly. I am willing to take full responsibility & flack and once again ask our wonderful Okies community to please help and step up to the plate to make this an event the entire BYC can be proud of.
