Hi, Animal Lovers and friends,
What a day yesterday at the Mug-Bog-Fest! I wasn't sure what to expect as I had never attended a "Mud-Bog" event before. Goodness! Those vehicles sure got muddy! Check out Terry & Helen Truex's picture on our "Events Album."
Terry grilled the hot dogs to perfection, Helen served them up, and I collected the money! We had a great day all around. Oh, and the lollipops sure sold to the kids!
Thanks to Jamie Rosenberger for bringing her "Batman" canopy, setting it up for us, and then returning to take it down. Thanks, Jamie!
We are still waiting for Hettler Engineering to finish up the site plans. There is a hold-up with the driveway plans as they are considering putting the entrance off of the access road at the north end of our property instead of off the State Route. Hopefully the plans will be finished by our November 3 meeting for presentation to the members. We have to choose a plan and then it is sent into the EPA and ODOT for approval.
In the meantime, we keep plugging along raising money, and talking to the general public on our goal of building a shelter on the land we purchased. We have had numerous people join in the last month through our fund-raising efforts.
We are gearing up for the Benefit Dinner/Silent Auction November 7th. We have been collecting lots of goodie items for the auction, door prizes and selling attendence tickets.
Please tell others about us and what we are trying to accomplish. Spread the word far and wide so we can increase our membership and gain more support!
We have such a fine array of volunteers and they do a great job for us!
Thanks everyone!
Eileen Rohrer, CCAPL President
