A Note from the President

MO-TELL is getting ready for the annual liars contest and we hope you are too. The rules for this year are on the website www.mo-tell.org. Take a look at them and sign up.

Missouri has the best liars in the country.


This year’s event is being held in Columbia, MO at the Columbia Library on July 20th.

There will be storytelling, a workshop and a contest. Our annual auction will be online and is scheduled for August. There will be a quilt raffle in the month following the contest. I hope you are a part of this MO-TELL happening. Your lie could be a winner.


Keep telling your tales whether they be lies or truths,

Joyce Slater

President, MO-TELL
