Friends of the Furry Ones!

We are thrilled to tell you that our 2nd Annual Woof, Wag & Wine 2009 FUNdraiser/Silent Auction was a huge success!

The venue was literally "In the woods" of a beautiful, well-manicured 40 acre property, with a large boardroom surrounded by a beautiful courtyard. It was a gorgeous spring day with a mild breeze and everyone really seemed to enjoy the event. There was plenty to eat and drink, we had wine of course, and the frozen margaritas were a big hit.

Special guests attended, including OOTW supporters Kathy Webb and Philip & Karen Martin.

The event was well attended and we raised even more money than last year. Most all of the items sold and our guests got a "bargain" on many of the items The most important outcome is that we raised enough money to fund our rescue, spay/neuter and animal welfare efforts for months to come. It is only with the generous support of people who care that we can continue this very important work and make our little part of the world a better place for all of God's creatures.

We are very grateful to all of you who continue to support us with your generosity, your kind words and your own efforts to help those in need.

Thank you, everyone!
Kathy

What a wonderful event, Kathy! I so enjoyed it - everything was just perfect. And I LOVE my auction bracelets. I love jewelry but would never let myself spend money like that -- I always look at "how many spays and neuters" something costs! Knowing that I could get something for myself and still have the money go to the animals was perfect! I only wish I could have gotten there early enough to have more than 1 margarita!
