ANNOUNCEMENTS
The Fiber
Frenzy, because it occurs in January, is one of the best shows for
displaying and promoting the Pygora goats of all fleece types in
full fleece.
Last year we had many inquiries from folks who wanted to view
finished products made from Pygora fiber but there was not much
available.
This year we plan on having a display booth which will
feature finished products made from Pygora fiber as well as various
skeins of Pygora yarn for viewing.
In addition, as always, there will be a booth at which Pygora
fiber, both processed and raw, can be sold to the public.
Please consider bringing your finished products (hats,
mittens, felted items, scarves, etc) and your skeins of Pygora yarn
to add to our display booth.

Pygora products display booth information.
This
is our ninth year for the Fiber Frenzy and, just like everything
else, expenses and costs seem to creep up each year.
We are seeing an increase in costs in the following areas:
Insurance, building rental, advertising costs, panel fees
(for animal pens), office supplies and postage, show supplies and
ribbons, duct tape, tarps, straw, etc. As many of you know, each
year our goal is to have the show break even.
Last year with the help of raffle donations and cash
donations from some individual sponsors, after all expenses were
paid, there was only $42 remaining in the show fund.
So, How Can you
Help?………….
We’ve
designed three levels of “Sponsorship” that, in addition to
helping with show costs, will provide some value added options for
animal exhibitors and vendors.
By purchasing one of these levels of sponsorship you will be
supporting this show by helping with costs, gain farm recognition
for your herd and enhance your marketing efforts, and you will be
educating the buying public by allowing this event to continue each
year.

for details about our 2003
Sponsorship program.
If
you are unable to participate in any one of the three levels of
sponsorship, please consider a cash donation of any amount to help
offset this year’s increased costs.
We
will once again be holding a raffle during the lunch hour of the
show and we encourage everyone to bring your special item donation.
If you
have any questions or want to discuss the program, please contact:
