Final Help Needed For Terror At The Fair Cleanup
The community area is in the final stage of the Terror at the Fair project cleanup. We would like to thank all the members who helped out last weekend and got us to this point. We have the semi trailer loaded and still need to transport the remaining stuff (mostly props and costumes in plastic bins) to the fairground garage storage site.

The group is still searching for people with trucks or large vans who would like to assist us in moving the items this Saturday November 20th at 9am-finish. If we have no success in getting help we might have to resort in renting a U-Haul and this might hurt our budget for the toy programs. Please help us if you can and finish this project before it gets more cold and we have snow on the ground.

Thanks-Nathan Lange (Dubuque Jaycees 2010 Community Development VP)
