Arrrooo fellow pets and humans! WOW, a BIG DOG palooza! I don’t know what a palooza is but I like words like that, WOOF! Palooza, palooza, palooza, hehe…oh, okay Mom says to give the announcement, sorry, rrrufff. What I really like is that this is all about some big dogs, Newfoundlands, to be exact. We are helping them in their fundraiser and we hope you will too. Here’s all the info and who to contact so you can be newfiepaloozing too, WOOF!
__________________________________________
It’s time for our 3rd Annual Newf-Net get together & fund-raiser for Newfoundland dog rescue. We are calling it Newfiepalooza 2006 this year!! We are a non-profit group of Newfoundland dog owners that is 2800 strong. Many of our members have their newfs trained in search & rescue, water rescue, therapy, cart pulling, grooming and showing as well as
other things. Our Newf-Net Get together & fund-raiser is being held May 13, 2006, in Long Grove, Iowa.
Currently we have 170 people, 80, newfs & 25 non newfs registered. And I am sure that number will continue to grow as we get closer to the event date. We expect members (and their Newfoundlands) from all over the United States and Canada.
All donated items will be used in a raffle and/or a silent auction. The auction and raffle will be available for all members, including those that are unable to attend the get together. During
last years event we were able to raise close to $3500.00 for newf rescue, which was spread out to several rescue groups across the United States. All donations will be tagged with your
information or business card so that everyone would know where the item was donated from.
I will also include website address‚ because most of the members do a lot of their shopping online. And your company will receive a direct link to your web site, along with pictures of the donated product on our auction website. Plus we will have a table set up for just advertising,
brochure, flyers anything you want to advertise your company we will put it out for everyone to look at or take.
Thank you and I appreciate anything you can help us with & the NEWFS thank you!!!
