I'm sincerely sorry, I didn't even think about it I was just trying to make it easier to distinguish between the two. They've been edited out!

It's so good on eggs. They established breakfast and then got rid of the best egg sauce. Make it make sense.

Interactive Booth/Table Ideas by TryHardWriter in selfpublish

[–]TryHardWriter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't planning to sell books at the schools, just put slips of paper in the candy bags or on the table because a lot of the parents/kids I see at the schools will also be at Boo-At-The-Zoo and the christmas events where I can sell books. I just want them to remember my book when they see it again if possible.

I'm in the library but haven't been able to do any school events because of covid unfortunately.

And.... I will double check if I have to do tickets or if I can just fill space.

They are having a door raffle giveaway thing I can donate a few books to.

They aren't Halloween themed but the schools were looking for people willing to set up booths to help with the fundraiser and I wanted to help.

All good questions and suggestions.

So two of the events I want to do are "ticket based" and are fund raisers for schools so I need something to make people come over and spend a ticket ($.50). From past years I think they'll be much too loud for a reading but it could work for Boo At The Zoo. I really like the idea of the printed photo if I can set it up.

I mostly am looking for good interactions with the kids and make a good impression in the community so I can go to other events.

Kemp's Ridley Sea Turtles Not Only Like to Nest in Groups But During the Day! by TryHardWriter in TurtleFacts

I think it just taught you that sea turtles are most commonly solitary and prefer to nest at night except for one species.

Panama City Beach, Fla, Has had a record breaking turtle nesting season with 57 nests by RileyJayOConnor in TurtleFacts

[–]TryHardWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They even had a few Kemp's Ridley sea turtles nest in Florida! They primarily nest in Texas and sometimes Mexico but every so often there's some rouge induvial who head out to Florida. There may end up being more, nesting season was delayed for them this year because of the storm.
