It's almost here...the Frolic in the Snow 2002 right here in Hadley, Massachusetts (Western Massachusetts)! There will be so much available for ferrets and the humans who love them (and want to fill their home with ferret-realted stuff!). Here are the groups and vendors we're expecting on Saturday, February 23rd: Ferret Services of Freedom (New Hampshire) Ferret Wise Shelter (New Hampshire) New Hamphire Ferret Owner's Connection Ferret Association of Rhode Island (FARI) Ferret Madness (Rhode Island) Ferret Kingdom (Rhode Island) Warm Fuzzy Ferret Rescue (Pennsylvania) New England Ferret Foster, Education, and Rescue, Inc Clara's Creations (New Jersey) Our day is filled with games and prizes! Ferrets will compete in Un-Pot the Flower, First Out of the Bag, the Floppy Duck Race, Mustelid Chairs (a slight variation on musical chairs) as well as vyw for a prize for Coolest Markings, Longest/Shortest Tail, and a best-dressed award for those who compete in the Costume Contest! Our raffle and aution items are not to be believed...a handmade wooden garden bench with a ferret silhouette will be an admirable addition to any yard, garden, or front hallway...an American flag made from weathered fenceposts and hand-painted is a beautifully rendered tribute to our country...and other wide and varied items will round out a live auction and a raffle table. For directions, please go to our website at www.neferrets.org and check out the page devoted to the 2002 Frolic in the Snow! It has events listed and directions below, as well as a link to MapQuest for a map. We can't wait to see you and your ferrets! Come Frolic with us! [Posted in FML issue 3698]
