Items Needed For Flea Boutique! Dog Daze Ahead!

For the second year, the Development Association of Marshall is sponsoring its French Broad Friday event “Dog Daze” on August 13, 2010 beginning at 5 p.m. The Association is working with Friends of Madison County Animals on this event and Friends will benefit from several fund raising events to occur that Friday evening.

Here’s what’s planned: Dog contests, dog wellness mini-expo with speakers on topics such as nutrition, health, first aid, and grooming, a Silent Auction of dog beds created by local crafts and wood-working friends, a jazz concert by “The Kittens”, paint your own pottery, and a FLEA BOUTIQUE!

We’re hoping that you’ll contribute some items that you’ve been thinking of passing on to some other worthy owner to the Flea Boutique. It would be wonderful if these items were somehow animal-related in keeping with the Dog Daze theme, but gosh, most anything would be appreciated (except clothing – no clothing please – give it to our neighbors at My Sister’s Attic).

Beginning July 19th, you can drop these items at the Friends’ office opposite the post office in downtown Marshall between 2 and 4 from Monday through Friday. If you want us to pick up your treasures or if you have any questions, give Diane a call at 689-4225. If there are items that you want to put a value on, feel free to do so.

And be sure to plan to come on the 13th (with or without your canine companion(s)! No doubt you’ll find a treasure to take home as well as having a wonderful time beating the heat.
