AARC FIELD DAY – Another Request
Lisa Fairbank loaned the AARC a screen shelter for Field Day.
I put the shelter's pegs somewhere and someone else must have put them “away” BUT WHERE? Most of the pegs were “L” shaped & some were like nails. If you have any information about the pegs please contact me. Thank you.
