Member announcement and request by Aunty Min’s Specialized Pet Care:
Hello, everyone, I’m a member of BBW and was at the last networking meeting hosted by Rickie. I am also on the BOD of PAWS of Bainbridge Island & North Kitsap and I am working on a brand new event that we’re doing in May called Purses for PAWS. As I mentioned, this is an inaugural event for us and I wanted to see if I could somehow spread the word through the BBW. Also, we would like to give each attendee a goody bag so I wanted to offer up the opportunity to members if they’d like to include something in the goody bag. For example, I am putting in a customized mint tin, Susan Wiggs is donating a book (she’s also our presenting sponsor), another person is doing a little baggie w/ some chocolates, someone else is offering $$ off a massage. So, we’re looking for actual “items” as opposed to only business cards. We’d like to have a nice bag for the ladies! :)
Thank you!
Mindy
Purses for PAWS
Sunday, May 15th
Sogno di Vino – downtown Poulsbo
2pm – 4pm
Spend a fun afternoon w/ your girlfriends! You can shop while you sip! A ticket to this event might be a nice Mother’s Day present, too! Since I’m on the committee, I’ve been lucky enough to see most of the items that have come in – WOW….Coach, Gucci, Piero Guidi, Dooney & Bourke, Cole Haan, Ann Taylor, Vera Bradley and many more designer bags…. evening bags, leather, suede, big, small, international, leather, fabric – you name it, we probably have an item that fits your needs! We have only accepted “gently loved” or new items. I am in handbag heaven, let me say! Not to mention the jewelry!!! Oh my, if you can’t tell – I’m excited for 5/15! :)
We only have a limited number of tickets – so, don’t wait! And, please feel free to tell your friends. This is a fundraiser – so all your $$ goes to a wonderful cause – specifically the PAWS Hartstone Spay/Neuter Fund (which provides minimal-cost sterilization surgeries for the pets of low-income families).
Please feel free to print the flyer and put out at their businesses and/or forward to friends, that would be great!! Below is a link to the website – there are a few items to show you some of the variation. We want to sell out and have a successful – and FUN – event!!!!
