What fun!
 
Because we had so much fun planning this event and the folks attending had a lot of fun, we will make this an annual event.  Please watch here for more details. We will do one in a Spokane park probably next Spring.
 
We had a fun day with many contests with free prizes for the winners.  This was a free day and the fundraising was based on donations and raffle tickets sales only.  We are happy to announce that we made enough to purchase perimeter fencing around the house and the 1/2 acre (approx.) so the dogs will have room to run.  They can go off leash now and not be eaten by coyotes out on the farm.  Thank you!
 
We are still thinking of ways to raise enough money to convert an outbuilding with "real" kennels, but more on that later as the ideas show up.
 
But the day was a fun event and we appreciate the volunteers and helpers who made the day a success.  Thank you to Jessie for being there!  You were a big help!
 
Thank you also to Taste of India for being the chow at the event.  We really appreciated you coming out to the park.
 
Thank you also to the many sponsors who donated items for our raffle and the prizes for all the contests.  The raffle prize was worth $275 and the winner only invested $2.00!  Chris is going to have one happy wirehaired wiener with all the fun staff she can get at the following merchants who donated.
