Don young and I have been trying to improve on our state fair with the hopes that someday it would be a great contest. We had sponsorship lined up and everything was looking fantastic but our sponsor has now pulled out. Don and I have decided to personally pay the tab left behind by the sponsor but would appreciate any help we can get. I myself will be digging in my personal seed collection to find seeds to put up for auction or raffle (dont know exactly what we are doing yet) and if anyone else would have something nice that dont fit into their plans that they would like to donate it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mike Frantz

Thanks guys!

Ill post it here so I dont have to send it out multiple times. I get many bubbles so if your sending a donation please write "for state fair" somewhere on envelope or in a note. Thanks everyone VERY much.

I have to help you, I need you to keep going POSTAL for me.
Next shipment out.
And to any Canadian growers, I will forward any Bubble packs for you, Or I am sure Mike will be at Niagara to receive anything extra you have.

Mike,
that's dissappointing ... I'd suggest looking for new sponsors.

Are you going to Niagara? If so, I'll bring a couple seeds compliments of the GVGO. If not, I'll send them to Eddy. What's best for you? Good luck.

As of right now things are up in the air for Niagara. I still want and am trying to go but we had a group trip planned that is falling apart. Maybe sending would be the best plus I think id like to do the Auction end of February.

Thanks

Maybe I'll send them to Eddy to send down to you. I wouldn't want to lose them to the customs officials. I hope this is okay Eddy? Will get them out in the next few days.
