Airedales in the Park 2012

Toronto, Ontario

The picnic was held in a park on the outskirts of Toronto and was attended
by many Airedale Lovers, Breeders, and Rescue kids. I had 60 bandanas made for the dales and we ran out so that will give you an idea of how many
Airedales were in attendance.

We did not advertise the picnic as a fund raiser only saying that any funds
raised would be donated to National Airedale Rescue. We had a BBQ, games, grooming sessions by Peter and a dog trainer to answer questions. There was a Raffle with chances to win one of 4 donated prize baskets, a sp-AIRE change jar and a Silent Auction table with many great items to bid on.

We also had a table set up where people could look at books full of scrap booked pictures of picnics past and "Faces of Rescue"( Pictures of the many dales I have helped place in the few short years I have helped with rescue) The weather was awesome as usual with a slight breeze off Lake Ontario to keep us comfortable. Like all good things it was work but well worth it in the end. I know that $1800 isn't a huge amount but It will go towards helping an Airedale or two.

So glad that we could help.
