We would love to hear your comments, what worked, what didn't work, what do we do better next time, stories, first impressions, etc. you might have regarding your visit or staffing of the MOU booth this year. I am way to close to be able to have an unbiased opinion and I do see many areas that could be different. We only have one full day of experience with the spinning wheel, computer, new although temporary table covers, method to stretch out the handouts over the course of the entire fair, and every other aspect of the booth. First comments were that the booth was very busy, kids are flocking to the wheel, adults are engaged and entertained by the computer and, we would be more effective with at least three volunteers per shift and that the booth seems to be an easy opening to talk about MOU and what it offers birders, new birders, and unknown birders wanna-bes.
Please share you insights, opinions, comments off-server-line to me at tho...@angelem.com or to Jen or Kate if you have their email addresses. We, the Education Committee of MOU, truly represent you with the intention of sharing what we do as a state-wide birding club, what we have to offer, as well as our passions and fun. Your opinion is important. I have a feeling we will get a wide range of often contrasting opinions, so please know we will hear them all and use our best judgement to implement and improve the booth for next year as well as for the rest of this year's fair. You do have a voice and we do have ears to hear what you think and say - actually eyes to read your emails (please don''t all rush to call me - my wife would like to see me come out of my home office occasionally).
