Many of us think that Fall is the best season of the year.  I love the oranges and browns that decorate the stores and putting the garden to bed for the winter.  I hate to lose my tomatoes and zinneas to that first frost but I admit it is nice to have my evenings transition back to inside activities.   And in the Fall we always have the Grant County Fair, one of my favorite activities.  It is wonderful to see the kids show off their year of hard work with their projects and to visit with their parents, some whom you only see once a year…at the Fair.  Come join us this year, put in a shift at the Cowbelle booth and see for yourself what a positive experience it is for us Cowbelles and the Community.

We need to put together a nominating committee so that we can have a slate of officers to vote on at our October meeting.  Please, please, please if you are willing to be on this committee or better yet an officer next year, let us know! We are doing elections earlier this year as we are supposed to list our new slate of officers in the President’s report which has a due date of November 15^th.

Gale Moore gave us a two page centerfold picture gallery of the Centennial Shindig in her  September Glenwood Gazette.  Thank you Gale!
