Hello Alpaca Enthusiasts—
Yup, it’s time to get ready for the 2022 Gold Country Gathering, and that means Silent Auction Donations are needed!
So… we need DONATIONS!!
We love alpaca products—sweaters, scarves, hats, yarn, roving, SOCKS!! (yes, SOCKS!!!!).
We crave alpaca care items—winter is coming and you can never have enough cria coats! A maternity kit? Scales? Fancy halters and leads?
Or how about a skirting table?? (If you’re handier than me, you can look up the instructions In the back issues of Alpacas magazine and make one out of PVC and shelving)
The HOLIDAYS are coming up, so GIFT items—baskets of goodies, jewelry, art works—are always popular!
Gift Certificates!! Everyone loves Gift Certificates—to the movies, a restaurant, TJ’s, whatever!
Would you be willing to donate a weekend at your vacation condo? Or Time-share??
Or do you have some other service you can donate? A transport? Halter training? Fleece skirting or grading?
And you know how we feel about good BOOZE—we LOVE it! (we always drink responsibly…)
So, here’s the deal: Please respond to Laurie Findlay below and let her know what you are donating. It would be great to have an approximate value, too.
Then, just bring the item to the show.
And bring your business cards or marketing materials, so that you can ride this thing for all it’s worth! Get some publicity for your generosity!
BOO-HOO!..So you say you’re not going to the show?? No excuse—just give your item to one of your colleagues to bring, or mail it to me, or shoot me an email!
Thanks a bunch!!
Laurie Findlay
