Club's Patriotic Booth Turns Heads at Local Street Fair

More than chili was cooking at the Tustin Street Fair & Chili Cook-Off in Old Town Tustin on June 4.

Thanks to club member Becky Grimes and her outstanding design skills, we had a patriotic balloon tower and the most amazing pop-up canopy under which to share our message.

More than one visitor said, "This is the best booth here!"

Men and women alike stopped by to see what we are "all about." It was interesting to learn that a number of women did not know TARWF existed. Well, they do now! In addition to sharing our mission and inviting them to our next meeting and happy hours, we were able to talk about local issues.

You would be amazed at the degree of bonding that can take place over a branded bottle of water. Feelings of solidarity and support were continually fueled by the smiles and thumbs-ups displayed by those who did not have time to actually stop and chat. 

Overall, it was a worthwhile investiment of our time, and a relaxed atmosphere in which to share our efforts. We already have three potential new members who might even bring new friends. It just proves we need to get the word out!
