[QUOTE=Rusty's Momma;2336506]Tara, Are we still doing the doorprizes/raffle to benefit OKYR? Just cuious since it wasnt mentioned in the above posts. People may wanna know so they can bring raffle ticket money :D [QUOTE] Oh, yes! Thank you for the reminder!!! Depending on how many items we get donated, we will be doing door prizes--we will do some combination of: everyone attending will get their name put in for drawings; door prizes given to "smallest", "largest", "drove the furthest", etc... Also, we will be "raffling off" some things---$2 donation per chance to win (or 3 chances for $5), proceeds benefitting OKYR. I also think it would be fun to get T-shirts made for us (that will come a little later when I have time to "design" them).....those we would sell for cost, plus $2 to benefit OKYR. When I work on that, I will post the design for all to see, and then take "orders" so I don't end up with umpteen T-shirts leftover. :p Let me just say, in getting together we have a great opportunity to make/solidify friendships, as well as a ready-made play date for our furkids, and it costs us absolutely nothing but the drive over!!!! But, we also have a unique opportunity to take part, if we wish, in helping out a really great cause--OKYR. I have been the college student that wants to attend an event and wants to be able to help a cause, but isn't able to financially. Now, I'm finacially able to make small donations to worthy causes, and hopefully in the future I'll be able to make larger donations. Remembering where I came from, I don't want anyone to not attend because they don't feel able to contribute anything but themselves.....we WANT YOU!!! So, please come and enjoy the fun!! |
I will be there ...I will send pm now :) I am so excited to meet everyone! |
We'll be there! Let me know if you need any help! I can't wait! |
5 weeks away now!! With the holidays over, and since our meet-up is only 5 wks away now, I wanted to get a better idea of how many will be attending......some vendors, etc... are wanting to have an idea of how many goody bags we will be putting together, so I need to find out a close number so we can get goody bags finalized. If you and your furkids will be attending please PM me with how many people and how many furkids will be in your "party". I have numbers for Bay-Bay, Pepelapeu, and jaymes (jaymes it's just you and Diamond right?), but if the three of you have any changes please let me know. Several others have expressed an interest in being there as well, but I need to get good numbers (since I want to have 1 goody bag per furkid in attendance). Also, any extra goody bags will go to OKYR. Just let me know!! I'm very excited to see you all there!!! |
