The Refuge Rover made a splashy appearance at the rainy Suwannee Art Festival on Saturday, March 8. Despite sparse attendance, Friends volunteers Debbie Jordan and Debbie Meeks had surprisingly robust interest in our shirts and other merchandise.
The new zip-lock bag system of inventory management helped keep most of the shirts dry. When it rained hard, Debbie J incredibly produced a blue tarp from her truck large enough to protect two tables loaded with merch. They covered and uncovered all day. Debbie generously donated the tarp to the Rover so it will be in our festival toolbox from now on. One of the benefits of a rainy and therefore slower festival is longer conversations, Debbie and Debbie enjoyed meeting and talking with some of the long-time residents who deeply know and love the Lower Suwannee NWR. |
