YHR 2014 MegaRaffle/Dog Show Donations It's that time of the year again! The Reliant Dog Show is coming up in July from the 16th - 20th; and Yorkie Haven Rescue will once again have a booth and a huge raffle! The dog show link is: Houston World Series of Dog Shows Some of you have already donated items for the raffle and some have promised to donate. Please be aware that we have a JUNE 1st cut off on donations for the raffle so that we can get the flyer together and sell tickets prior to the event. Other donations can come in up until the date of the show! If you have anything you would like to donate, please send me a PM or send an email to yorkiehavenrescue06@yahoo.com We can use all sorts of things...even if they are small things like dog clothing and toys, top knot bows and whatever, we can use them for other things at the booth. We can use items for humans and for pets!! This is a perfect time to purge your closets and cabinets of unused/unwanted items! Some ideas for people are jewelry, cologne, bath and body items, golf balls, scarves, handbags, paintings, figurines, coffee, teas, mugs, candies...anything at all!!! We can turn anything into money to help the pups!!! A link to pics of our booth from 2012 is here: Index of /dogshow2012 Last year, our Gift Card Wreaths were a huge hit. We are going to do at least one Gift Card Tree, hopefully two depending on donations. You can send gift cards to us in any denomination ... Some ideas are Starbucks, Mc Donalds, Red Lobster, Chili's, Target, Kohl's, Hobby Lobby, Michaels, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, YOU NAME IT!! Remember that even a $5 gift card can be valuable...they all add up to make a great prize! :) To get some ideas of the items we could use for the raffle, here is the link to last year's raffle catalog. Keep in mind that for the baskets, we took items that were donated and grouped them together, so it is not necessary to donate an entire basket of items! http://yorkiehavenrescue.com/raffle/raffle2013b.pdf Thank you for helping the Haven pups! __________________ |
I will have happily have donations sent to you before June 1. :) |
I have some things I can send! I'll get them together and send your way! |
It is so odd, everything I posted yesterday is not on YT. (Including a post on this thread.) Anyway, I love this time of year and cannot wait to hear about all the raffle prizes. YT members are so generous and creative! :) |

YT is missing yesterday's posts after having to revert to a previous night's version---so I'll repost what I said yesterday. I'll be sending a gift card and I think some new top knot bows that I never used. Linda, yesterday you posted YHR's address on this thread...can you repost that? |

The funniest thing happened at the post office. I had my items laid out on a counter and while picking the proper size pkg., a woman came in with 4 curious children! Before I could stop them, 3 of the kids had opened the set of red Zoey tennis shoes and were parading them across the floor on their fingers! :eek: The whole incident caused quite a scene because each shoe lights up in red when you put pressure on the soles! I was so embarrassed and I kow the postal workers were glad to see me leave! :D |
Quote:
Those shoes sound adorable! :) No need to apologize....we have plenty of time. Thank you so very much!!! |
Carla, the post office scene sounds too funny!! Dog accessories can attract almost as much attention as the dogs themselves. :D Glad you bumped this thread. I meant to this morning . . . need to get busy with a package for YHR so that it arrives by June 1. :) |
