FUNDRAISERS: The Rummage Sale held at Sue's house on August 31 and September 1 was very successful, but if we have this sale again next year, we will probably limit it to one day only

Bazaars - Our first bazaar for the fall season was October 5. - Here are the dates of our bazaars: K of C Hall, Auburn - October 16; St. James School - October 26; Washington School - November 9; and St. Stan's School - November 16.

"The Big House" - Two of our supporters, Dick and Jim, are working with Mary, owner of "The Big House" Sports Bar on Midland Street, to put together a fundraiser for KBAF on February 16, 2003, Sunday, starting at 2:00 p.m. We have had some preliminary meetings and everyone is working hard to make this a successful fundraiser. We plan on having some KBAF T-shirts available at the fundraiser as well as many items available for sale and door prizes.

Enclosed is a flyer which tells about the fundraiser. There will be more information and another flyer in the next rescue letter.

A New Form: Also enclosed is a copy of a new form which we will have available at our fundraisers in the future. Many people have asked how they can make a donation in honor or memory of a person or pet and the new form has all the information.

Website: Sherri designed a Website page for KBAF. If you would like to see our rescue letter, memorial section, rescue stories and other animal information, go to: www.dogsaver.org/kbaf/mission/mission.htm If you would like a photo of a special pet placed on the memorial site, please send a photo and a short story about your pet, and Sherri will put the picture and story in the Memorial Section. Or if you have an animal rescue story you would like placed in the Rescue Section, please send picture and short story to our address. Thanks, Sherri.

WISH LIST - We are still looking for (1) Red Wing Hockey fabric or a source where we can purchase it. We would use this fabric for doggie bandannas and little Doggie Dollys; (2) Jewelry - old, new, used, broken, etc. for stick pins and other crafts; (3) Figurines and knickknacks; (4) Even though we received several bags of stuffing, we can still use more as the stuffing is used for dog bone toys (both sizes) and doggie dollies. Would like the old style Venetian blinds with the wide slats so we can cut up to make plant markers. Thanks to everyone that made donations and helped to give a homeless animal a chance to have a good life.

Trudy Kane, Secretary
