Soroptimist Home & Garden Show Memories

Chickens, local food, beautiful quilts, cooking demonstrations, dancing, massage, and did I mention chickens? The 19th annual Soroptimist Home & Garden Show was a rousing success and a great experience for many local organizations and businesses. Held at the Fallon Convention Center this past weekend, and featuring over 40 vendors, the Home & Garden Show provides and opportunity for the community to sample, taste, pummel, and learn about the many opportunities there are in Fallon for entertainment, business, and education. Soroptimists International of Fallon has held the Home & Garden Show for the past 19 years as a fundraiser for their programs that focus on providing scholarships, education, and support for other women's programs. The Fallon Post was able to have a booth at the show, collect email addresses from attendees, and visit with several hundred people about the paper.
