Capital City Farm Days will be held in Fuji Park, Carson City Apr. 21-22. Apr. 22nd is also Earth Day.

There is some confusion as to which State Fair we will be attending. The Nevada State Fair is June 9-12 at Mills Park or The Western Nevada Fair and we don’t have the information on the dates. Hopefully Nancy Pryor will be able to “unconfuse” at the March meeting.

Hannah visited the Job’s Peak Guild meeting last month. They offered up a complimentary membership so we can visit their meetings, one person at a time. We voted to allow them to visit our meetings anytime and any number, no membership necessary. Their meetings are held in Gardnerville on the third Saturday of the month (except July and December), at the UNR Extension Office across from Lampe Park in Gardnerville. Meetings begin at 10:00 am to Noon. For more information: http://www.jobspeakfiberarts.com/
