Hi everyone!

I hope that you are all having a great summer-it has sure been a beautiful one!

I would just like to update you on the progress of out annual Charity Cookout. As you all know we are having out cookout on Sept. 16th (rain date Sept. 23). The proceeds will be split between Second Chance Animal Shelter and the Hole in the Wall Gang. We are working to line up games, music and food. We have received confirmation that we will have not one but TWO of the best caricature artists around!!

The donations are starting to trickle in, and we have some really great ones already, such as TWO three credit classes at QCC, bookstore certificate, massages, restaurant and auto conditioning certificates, etc!! The day is looking like it will be a success and I am hoping that we will make a record amount of money to help these charities to help others in these rough economic times!

To ensure that we reach these goals, we are asking everyone to help. We need donations!! Ask EVERYONE that you know!! You’d be surprised at all the people that are willing to help you! We will take everything: beauty, sports, game, liquor, auto repair baskets and gift certificates! Movie, restaurant, gardening, gas station, tire, grocery certificates and baskets-we will take them! Whatever you can think of, there is someone who will want it! Are you a Reikki master?? We will welcome a certificate for a/some sessions with you! Clean houses? Cut hair? Do landscaping? We need YOU! Earn your GOLD STOLE!! For every four donations that you bring in, we will credit you for one community service!

Now for other talent-we are looking for help! We need an entertaining personality to emcee the “show” (that would be music from an I-pod). If you can speak into a microphone and encourage passersby to come join in the festivities and rah-rah our event-then YOU are who we need! We need people to sell tickets at the event, work the games, keep the food stocked, etc. There will be a sign-up sheet going up on the bulletin board outside of the PTK office for those of you who can help the day of the event.

We could also use a few more lawn games if anyone knows of someone who is looking to rid themselves of some. A few ideas would be “Toss Across” and “Horseshoes”.

Last, but not least, we are also going to be collecting pet food for the Second Chance Animal Shelter’s “pet food pantry”. This is a part of the shelter where people can go to get free food and litter for their hamsters, fish, birds, rabbits, etc. We will begin collecting these items immediately, so if you have anything that can help these poor animals out, please bring it to Bonnie’s PTK office. We will be collecting up until the cookout. It is not only people who can’t afford food, but pets end up hungry too!

I am looking forward to seeing you all this fall! Enjoy the rest of vacation!

Sincerely,
Chris Fintzel
