What a good day!!! Despite the threat of rain (and a few spots) it was glorious sunshine (as my sunburn will testify too!! )
We were right by the dog show and were cleaned out of almost everything (if anyone had any dog stuff to go in our now-empty dog tombola, please let me know!)
Moss turned up with his family and did a great job showing everyone how delicious the dog biscuits were (he is fast turning into our best customer!!!)
Our stall was manned by myself and my Mum, Sharon and her Mum and the lovely Nicky!! Her better half brought the lovely Bud down to see us in the afternoon and it was lovely to meet them both.
Rosettes were won by Moss, Bud and Lucie and we gave out a lot of leaflets and raised a fair bit too!!
Sharon will be on later to give you the magic figure and i will put up some pictures when i retreive my camera from the car!!
Thank you everyone for helping on what turned out to be a veryh good day!!! |

Phew, that was one busy day, but very satisfying
Our stall, even if I say so myself, looked the best ever today! We have now got set-up down to a fine art! It also helped to have extra tables to display on. The pace was fast and furious on our tombolas. Nicci excelled herself today and truly upped her game on ticket sales! Pure magic and I think we all had fun!
Many posters/contact details were give out today and one of the highlights was a volunteer to help at some of our events - Olivia. So I will be e-mailing her later
Nicci is also going to look into borrowing a dog suit for one of our events - guess you will be waiting for the photos on that one She has also offered to write to some of the pet suppliers for some donations of samples and dog accessory stock as we are running very low.
My mum has volunteered to make us some more RR bandanas so hopefully Stevie's mum will do the finishing/branding for her
TinaD, once again, pulled out all the stops and worked all week baking, ticketing and planning with her mum's back-up and support.
And here is the number you have all been waiting for ... drum roll ...
a fantastic £300! That makes the total for the last 3 weeks an amazing £650!
Well done!
Our next fundraising event will be: Barleylands Boot Sale, Billericay, Essex - Sun 12 July 2009 _________________ SHARONR - ADMIN

Fantastic - well done to everybody
Imagine all those wonderful dogs winning rossettes and all those wonderful people doing their bit - just fab
