Something Andréa has NEVER done before, and plans NEVER to do again! Photo Courtesy of Shell Lewis We worked on cleanup for two hours and were so exhausted that the thought of going out to dinner was beyond us. We DEFINITELY need to have more (and younger) workers next year! SOME STATISTICS * 51 humans were pre-registered; 51 came * 45 dogs were pre-registered; 48 came * of the 47 Silent Auction items, six received no bids and one was broken in transit, so 40 items sold. Thank you to those who sent extra dollars for shipping! Kim Grossman writes: Meeting some of the board members and other volunteers whom I have seen in print was terrific. It made CRUSA less of a stranger. In fact, the outing took on a personality all its own and made you feel the importance of what CRUSA is doing and was a wonderful reward for being part of it all. All of my dogs enjoyed the freedom and meeting so many other Cairns. George and Twix were very tired, but satisfied, when it was over . . . probably a first! I loved seeing so many Cairns together. Not a one that I wouldn't love to take home. Thank you to the committee & Shell for bringing this highly-successful Fest to the Midwest. It was a fantastic day! Rita Ferrer, of Airedale Rescue & Wire-Haired Fox Terrier Rescue: Just to let you know, I bought a very cute t-shirt so attended the Fest in spirit. Great design & colors! Congratulations! Sounds like a very good turnout. I went through your website and saw the shirts, liked the colors and bought one. A Cairn Rescue person in spirit!
