It is almost time to go down and start evening chores, but since I didn't write anything yesterday I thought I might do a short blog right now (otherwise I may forget, as I believe I have only ONE operating brain cell left!
The Cowboy Picnic was a huge success, and I thank every volunteer and Board Member who helped make it so. Dreamchaser could not get through the day without loving, reliable volunteers. They give of their time, energy, and spirit in order to help the animals lead better lives and find forever homes. The list of daily chores is huge, but the volunteers come and shovel stalls, fill waters, gather hay for goats, and help us figure out a myriad of dilemmas. Board Members were all present except Lisa, who was at the Stock Shop conducting a petting zoo with three other volunteers! The Stock Shop said it was the best petting zoo they had ever had. We surely aim to please, as the money from petting zoos goes right into the pot to care for and feed the animals here. The horse rides at the picnic were quite busy, and the petting zoo was too. All the silent auction items went, and lots of people were walking around talking to the horses. Everyone was busy from 8 am to 6 pm, and then, for Allen, Deb, and I, it was right onto evening chores. So THANK YOU to all who helped run the event smoothly, and THANK YOU to all who attended and supported us.
