SOCORRO FEST OCTOBER 13, 2012

Fur and Feather Animal Assistance would like to thank all the volunteers who made the Socorro Fest, a special "Thank You" to Deb Pinza, she always makes any event a great one!!  Thanks, Deb.

Here's what Deb had to report on the event:

Thank you all for your time and help today! While the wind didn't cooperate today, many people did. We raised $190.46 for Fur and Feather today!

From the treats to scarves to mice to tugs and fabulous organizational skills (special thanks to Troy), we were able to make it a success. People were very receptive to the Fur and Feather mission and loved the dogs (thank you Dulce, Ellis, Winslow, Tango, Dancer and Rueben for representing Fur and Feather well).

Peggy - thank you for your patience and "let's get it going" attitude. Setting up this morning was so much easier with you there. Thank you!

Nancy - baking with you was a pleasure and the scarves you made were so cool. I loved telling people that the best ingredients were used - that comment had dog lovers grabbing them from my hand! Your smiling face is both calming and encouraging - thank you for being there.

Chad - just having you there to spread the word about Fur and Feather and the work they do was great. Your first-hand experience with Fur and Feather is insightful and sharing that with people struck a chord in a few (they dropped dollars into the box - goal accomplished!).

Katie and Tyler - Wow, I don't know what we would've have done without your tireless dog-walking (while always looking happy) and working the crowd. You stayed until the last inning and helped until the very end - we cannot thank you enough! Katie, the treats were also a big hit and thanks for the eagle eye and help finding my keys.

Y'all Rock! Deb

PS - Laurie is going to look at the dates for two other shows this year and we also (almost for sure) have space at Festival of the Cranes so we will again ask for volunteers. :-)
