Thursday, May 1, 2008 - Had Dover
England, Bill Bainter, Robert Marek, Ron Neumura, Ron Herring and Dick Taylor
there early this morn. We blew up a gazillion ballons and then set them up all
over the store. Put together some small announcements advertising the
opening giveaways etc., put together several banners and set them up outside
facing the Inbterstate and in front of the store, filled six large ballons
with helium and tied 100 foot green & white flag pennants to them and Joe
put them up on the roof, did a few other things and set up the tables and put
the boxes of giveaways under the Gander Mt. tablecloths covering the tables.
Should be ready for the folks working the next three days. Joe and Janelle
were super nice to work with too. Dick Taylor
