Covenant Christian School students and staff began training at their smoothie booth“For the volunteers at the Covenant Christian School booth, the Grant County Fair started with a lesson in how to make smoothies. The fair starts today, and CCS students, staff and parent volunteers are running the fruit smoothie booth as a school fundraiser. Monday was the day to set up the displays, booths and tents, house the animals, enter exhibits and generally clean up those spaces that are used sparingly during the rest of the year. Principal Desiree Sept said CCS does use a lot of its equipment year-round, but a test run is never a bad idea. “We can sell to the kids that are here setting up for the fair, and all the other vendors. But we use today for training, so everyone that comes and works in our booth gets to find out how we work it, make sure we work out all the kinks,” Sept said.”

the Ephrata Lions food booth faced a cash register challenge“It wasn’t the ice machine but the cash register that was a challenge on Monday. It allows the booth to accept debit and credit cards – but there was a glitch, in the form of a 4% fee for card sales. Sue Franck was trying to make the math work. "The way it is set up, it only takes your number and deducts 4%. Well, if I add 4% to $5, it’s going to come out at $5.20. But if take $5.20 and deduct 4%, it’s going to come out at $4.99," Franck said. Since the goal was to keep the transaction as simple as possible for the buyer as well as the seller, those stray pennies were a problem.”
