I am pleased to announce on behalf of the International Ferret Symposium Committee that checks have been mailed to Support Our Shelters and University of Georgia ADV Research in the amount of $4,000.00 each. Our fundraising went way beyond our most hopeful expectations, and the committee wants to again express our appreciation for those who made it possible: our generous sponsors (Purina/Mazuri, Kit and Caboodle Ferretry, The Ferret Store and Parrots of the World), our informative and entertaining speakers, our wonderful volunteers, all the generous raffle donors, and all those who attended and made this Symposium such a success. Thank you all! Randy Belair Judy Cooke Troy Lynn Eckart Bill Gruber Linda Iroff Shelby Kimura [Posted in FML issue 3705]
