Judges - For judges we have formally asked Craig Snyder. He is checking the dates to
confirm if he's available. The other judge we are looking at is the current director of the
Banfill -Locke Art Center.
I’m hoping to increase our fundraising this year. I'm applying for a couple grants from
local banks and we are also revising and updating our individual donor list.
The plan is to have local restaurants provide food for the opening.
