I'm moving October 16, but I'll make stops before and after to bag and they can pick them up from me. I'd also make cold calls (by phone). The pickups would have to be me driving up and people bringing them out to my car because of my mobility issues, but I can't see that being a problem. Or people could drop them off to me once we have the materials to bag them.

Valerie -

I'm sure you know this but we need to make sure that the graphic also includes an explanatory of what Missy does. It's so important. Not just a shelter, but a shelter for abused animals.

Sharon,
Maybe you could coordinate the bagging of the biscuits and the delivery. Can anyone one out there step up and help Sharon. All you have to do is spend a little time bagging doggie biscuits or delivering the biscuits to the retail outlets. It shouldn't take much of your time...let us know.

Valerie wonderful!!

See this is what this project is all about. Helping one another in positive ways to make the
city better. No agenda, no secret meetings.Open talk, that is being "recorded" so that people,
any people can take part on a level, that fits their schedule, and ability. In this day and age
why not use the tools we have availableto get things done,easier,more efficiently and
with transparency.

Thank you all

peace

It is really great!

In one day we have 6 people to help with this project and one business already willing to sell the product!

We still need help! We need bakers, people to help stuff bags with doggies biscuits, people to deliver the biscuits and someone to solicit business to sell the biscuits. If we get enough people this won't take alot of time out of your day.

It is for a very good cause!

Please let us know if you can help!

I can print the labels, and have another couple businesses to sell biscuits.

I think I have a bagging machine upstairs, and will check.

Might be able to help Sharon with bagging, I am sure we both had
experience with that in our teens.

Also have space, and free coffee for other things.

Yes, we bag Lakewood stickers. You remember the ones we make, where 100%
goes to the charity selling them. As we do not bill them for the stickers. You know
the ones, 100% and all.

Heck I am always running from here to there anyhow, so I can transport or whatever and/or help with any photography. Any excuse to use my camera.

O'Bryan look out when we all get on the same task!

I think before we start we should have the plan for the container in place. Let's wait till we hear from Valerie and then we will go to work....

Again thank you all so much!!!!!! And you know I am in!!!!!!! LOL.

If anyone wants to meet me personally, tomorrow I will be at that Hot Dog Social thing at The Furry Nation. I will have the new dog with me. I need to go shopping there for some supplies, but I will be there for a couple hours. Nothing fancy, I don't know if I am even setting up anything, just gonna walk around and talk to people. I know a couple of people have met me personally, but I would love to meet everyone (and possibly hug everyone and maybe cry again!!!).

I have also been in talks with the owner of The Furry Nation about holding an event there as well. She told me to give her dates and we can work something out.

I also have been thinking about doing a "photo shoot" type of thing. Like where i can get someone in to take the pictures, and maybe give the "family" a free 5x7 (i of course will pay for the supplies) and then the family can order more pictures and i can set something up on my website for ordering.

Just throwing out more ideas....
