Presenting the 10th Quilt by the ADT-L
Quilting Bee.
The quilt raffle will be held on
Saturday,
October 7, 2006, at the Airedale Terrier Club of America
National Sweepstakes show, held in conjunction with the Montgomery
County Kennel Club All-Terrier Show.
This year, we are celebrating Airedales and their friends -
The drawing is at the Airedale Terrier Club of America National Specialty, which is held in conjunction with the Montgomery Kennel Club Specialty weekend. You do not have to be there to win. Tickets for the draw are sold through the internet, by mail, and at Airedale events throughout the summer.
The money raised is sent to the
ATCA Rescue and
Adoption Committee
for distribution
to rescue groups as needed, to
be used exclusively in assisting, rescuing and rehoming Airedales
in need.
The funds are used to reimburse Airedale rescue volunteers for the
funds they spend to spring Airedales from shelters, to pay for
veterinary care (testing
for heartworm, bringing the dog up to date on vaccinations,
spaying or neutering and pre-existing conditions),
to board rescues when there are no foster homes available and for
expert grooming in cases of disastrous neglect, as well as other
expenses that are incurred by the rescue workers to help rehome
these less fortunate Airedales.
Your support through the purchase of tickets helps make Airedale Rescue possible. The Airedale Terrier Quilting Bee is an online community of Airedale lovers who have banded together, sharing their love of Airedales to make these masterpieces. The entire project is conducted online - many of us have never met, and probably never will. We live as far north as the Yukon Territory in Canada, as far south as Florida, from the Atlantic, to the Pacific coasts. We communicate via a mailing list, and keep the quilter's website for our project reference material.
