STATE FAIR STATE FAIR

In August

-

our third --YOUR

third booth, at the Ohio State Fair. Yes, YOUR booth. All the energy, money, time, and literature are supplied by you---FOR YOU!

Each year the workers at the booth find more positive response thanthe year before. More straight, and Lesbians and Gays, approach the table for information, books, and petition signing. And those who are to come out and approach the table are reassured by the presence of sisters and brothers who care. Our quiet members of the Community see the organizations listed, notice the literature that is available, and are hopeful

The heterosexual people who pass are given the chance to read and discuss with members of Our Community. How many times has a co-worker said, "I don't know any"? How many times has your closest straight friend asked for more information? These are problems of outreach. The State Fair Booth can provide some solutions to that problem. Help us to continue to solve this problem. Help us to reach your friend, your co-worker. Energy and money are still needed. We can't continue YOUR booth without you.

For more information, call HERRMANN at (614) 263-2482 or write to the State Fair Committee c/o OGRC, P.0. Box 8393, Columbus, Ohio 43201.
