A great time was had by all at the fair. Our Shooting Gallery and Candidate Booth was a success again thanks to Rene Polda, Gordy Petersen, Frank Penwell and many other volunteers.Many folks remembered us from last year so they came to visit again. If they hit a target with a Nerf gun participants were allowed to answer questions of various difficulty about history, government and the constitution. Prizes were awarded according to difficulty level. We had many fun discussions about the answers. If they did not get an answer correct they were encouraged to return in an hour to try again. We had kids lined up most of the day. Candidates Dan Matthews and John Swapp spent time meeting folks and gathering votes at our candidate table. We all had a blast. Come to the Red Barn Event August 25th where the Shooting Gallery will be set up again.

Thank you to all who volunteered their time, sweat, trucks etc.

Here we have seen the first of many great decisions of President Mitt Romney. Many of us have been following Congressman Ryan as he has spoken out about the federal budget and the economy. This team has the knowledge, experience and drive to reform our federal government. It won’t easy but I am sure we will not see a bloated stimulus package or a 2000+ page health care bill from them. Keep these men and their families in your prayers.
