Sorry about that. We really just didn't know. By the time Ammar approached me several weeks ago about this problem, it was already much too late to change the date of the fair due to arrangements we had made. We simply didn't know about it in time for anything to be done. I can only hope that those students who are fasting on Friday will not harbor ill will due to the inconvenient date of the proceedings, and will not consider the food-related festivities an intentional affront to their beliefs.
Yeah, that was our bad.
