I make really nice jewelry as a hobby and would be happy to donate several necklaces if you'd like. It's one of those once you start you can't stop hobbies I'll see about horse themed pieces if possible. Let me know. Also, I'm great as a committee gofer - just point me in the right direction and I go.

I am very sorry to have put everyone off. I have been ill. I will be having a major surgery within a week.
All that being said, I would still like to do the Pony UP Fundraiser......but I will need some help. Time is late.
It will probably have to be held the first week of November.
If you want to help, please email me and I will try to get back to you asap.
We need items to auction, sponsored tables, a dinner menu put together.....
let's go while I can still do something.

I'm in for whatever needs to be done. I live in Port Orchard which should help. I hope your surgery goes well.

this is an all-points plea for help !!
If any of you are willing to help out by approaching people you know or businesses you patronize and asking for donations, we really could use your help! We are looking for items that can be auctioned off to raise money for SAFE. Items can be horse related or they can be things that appeal to the general public, since the attendees for this event tend to be about half horse people/half not. We'd prefer that items donated be new, or very slightly used. At last year's auction, certificate for services or goods were very popular. Some examples: dog training lessons, tire alignment, laser hair removal, scuba diving lessons, an outing to Emerald Downs, lessons or training with horse professionals in the area, photography sessions, admission to clinics...
Here is the list from last year, just to give you an idea of what kind of things work well:
granite table top motorcyle helmet photography package Ham certificate A painting of a cougar Tiffany lamp Fiberglass ladder 3 Way alignment certificate Month of horse training (no board included) 4 training or private lessons Scuba Lessons horse painting case of wine tool bag with tools garden basket 20" color TV (new in box) 5 yards of 5/8 minus gravel Jane Heart Jewelry item Hair cut/shampoo basket Emerald Downs day at the races for 4 Barb Apple clinic spot a ton of timothy hay certificate for 5 bags of Nutrena horse feed naturopathic health products basket
I bet if everyone thinks about it real hard, we can come up with great ideas for acquiring auction items! We are on a bit of a short timeline, so if this work can be spread out among a bunch of us, it will go much easier!
Thank you so much for your help!! Please contact me or Slew if you have any questions.

Okay, I need someone to call Emerald Downs.....
Dakota? how about you?
Simply call them and tell them how wonderful they were to help out last year (because they were and did).......ask if they would be willing to help again. You can have the packet sent to Jaybird.
I have contacted Jane Heart Jewelry......waiting to hear back. I will contact the scuba place tomorrow and the tire place.
We really need to move on this.....sorry I am so behind.
thanks!

If you're still taking donations, I'll offer a felted horse ornament, customized to match the winner's horse.

You could make a gift certificate and take a photo of one that you have previously done? Would that work?
