Perhaps like Grand Old Day, it should be Selby Day.
What: Selby Days
When: Saturday September 26th 11 am to 6 pm
Where: General Area is at Selby & Grotto
CD4 Republican Booth Location:Grotto & Selby
This is a new event in St Paul. This is good news being that many regular events have been canceled since Mayor Carter was elected. Rice Street Parade, White Bear Avenue Parade, and other events in St Paul. Though the organizers seemed reluctant to offer a booth for Republicans in St Paul and thus we just heard CD4 GOP was going to have a booth there this week. On one of the information pages, the event organizers, Creative Hearts MN, mention that it is a “curated event.”
If you would like to know more about the event please visit their website at:

Booya is a hearty stew cooked up in large cauldrons for fundraisers
After the MN State Fair ends two seasons start, “Back to School,” and Booya. The latter starts the weekend after Labor Day and usually runs to just before the General Election in November.
Booya might mean something to another part of the country but in the Upper Midwest it means a thick stew that is mixed and cooked up in a giant vat, or 55 gallon drum and served at non-profits and churches by the bowl until it’s gone.
While Booyas are not political in nature, we’ll add an extra notation of what Minnesota House District in Saint Paul or a nearby suburb each Booya is located in case your House District group wants to meet there.
