[Mnbird] MOU at the state fair 2015 August 27-Sept. 7

[kkelnberger]

>     Our state fair starts August 27th and continues through Labor Day, 
> September 7th.  The Minnesota Ornithologists' Union welcomes volunteers 
> to work at our Minnesota State Fair booth on the DNR campus.  
> Volunteers report back that they really enjoy talking with fair 
> visitors about birds. Our booth set-up and take down have been 
> streamlined with a wheeled cart where everything needed is stored.  
> Because of DNR budget constraints, we no longer receive tickets.  We 
> encourage volunteers to purchase  their own tickets as a donation to 
> MOU.  There will be some money available for reimbursement, especially 
> for those who sign up for multiple shifts. Our Google calendar is up 
> and ready for sign-up. If you wish, I will sign you up- just email me 
> your preferred dates.
