 Matters for discussion:

1. Planning for dog shows:
Classes
Prizes
Sponsors
Staffing the events
Outside attractions

2. Collections at stores, i.e. PAH, Morrisons
Dates for regular collections at PAH to be discussed (It ahould be noted that every time we hold an event at PAH we earn
£100 from their Head Office.
Street collections - would they be worthwhile?
Fundraising ideas, sponsored walks, picnic in Brigits meadow etc.etc.
Volunteers for shop - possibilities of second shop in Hereford

3. Volunteering at kennels
Dog walking
Manning Office
How can we improve things.

These are just some general guidelines but all thoughts and ideas welcomed.

Please pm me to let me know if you can attend so we can get some idea of numbers.
Many thanks

 I'll be there if I can. Not that I'm much use - again. My back was actually improving, I could walk a few miles at a time. I celebrated by taking one of the dogs up to the pen for a good play....bent down to pick up a toy...flipping back's out - again. Didn't know whether to do this =D or this 3..)-

One of these days I'm going to be marching the fields again with all the dogs, but it won't be this week, or the next, probably not the one after that either... 3..)-

 Hello Carol

I'm already at a Cat Protection re-homing day with my foster cats on Saturday. If for some reason you change the date of the meeting, please let me know and I'll come along.

Thanks
Annette

 mum (Lorna) is coming along for the two of us. I would be happy to help out with a street collection in Hereford town centre. The greyhound rescue were dotted about the centre a week or so ago-every collector had their beautiful dog with them....it worked......lots of people giving money in return for a stroke and a bit of fuss with the dogs. Sam would bring people in-whenever we are in town with him he always gets admirers and people stopping to chat...and of course he'd love the attention!
p.s i tried to download some photos of Sam onto the happy landings-but it wouldn't let me -to many mega bites or whatever ???? any suggestions how to overcome this? thanks Hannah

 Thank you! Yes, my back is often an issue which I find very frustrating. There's not a lot I can do about it at the moment but have learned to live with it. As long as I can walk, I'm happy!

 Will gladly volunteer for some street collections in Hereford with Hannah. Think Chomp and Sam will be good adverts for you!
