Well, it sounds very promising. Just have to figure out how far of a trip it would be. But we will try and talk our Dad into it...Mom is already talked into it.

Re: Furkid Fun Day - Hosted by Boomer Times
This just keeps getting better and better. With Rose at the helm, you can trust me that it will be a blast--and her pal Martha is no slouch either! These women are like the energizer bunny, I swear! And I will get to meet them (finally).
Our pack will be at the Col. Potter booth--am making some things for auction there. And new ideas keep cropping up all the time.
Please come if you can for a fun, fun time.

Re: Furkid Fun Day - Hosted by Boomer Times
The parking lot the event will be held at is right behind my Vet Clinic - that address is 2757 Plaza Way, Saint Charles, MO 63303 Mapquest should be able to give you an idea of distance & travel time (I am sure the lot itself has an address - I have not obtained that yet though)- Comfort Suites is less than 5 miles from the lot*
**We are up to 6 Rescue Groups and approx. 20 venders are confirmed for booths** Petsmart has donated giftcards for the Costume Contest Winners* There is already a local cable TV show that has requested an interview with us* Much more in the works - venders will be passing out "treats" to hu & fur kids that come to "trick or treat" !!
