STATE FAIR: PiNY & Fashion Review Updates
PiNY Meeting Followup
I am following up regarding the discussion that was held on 5/24 regarding the PiNY competition at the New York State Fair. I, unfortunately, forgot to hit the record button on our discussion but have included the notes from the meeting below. We are looking to gather more information from all counties that have an interest in participating in the event and who may have youth interested in this program at the State Fair Level. Please take a moment to fill out the google form to help us inform our decisions and forward motion. Please feel free to share this email with staff that may have not received this information directly.
Meeting Notes
The meeting was held via zoom and began at 1:30 pm.
Autumn Started the meeting and explained the purpose of the meeting and what we needed to gain from the discussion. The challenge at this time is that the former coordinator (Brenda Carpenter) has retired and we are in need of a new coordinator(s) if the program is to continue and we need to determine if there is enough interest and desire to hold this event in 2022.
Discussion points
