To All of our Healing Hearts Ferret Rescue Supporters and Ferret Lovers, Near and Far: Please join us for an informal get-together at Panera, 4301 Richmond Road, Warrensville Hts, OH, 44122 on Thursday, March 14, between the hours of 5:00 and 8:00 p.m. to plan a major fundraising event for our kids. We'll be there at 5:00 p.m. to claim Panera's large conference table (they won't reserve it for us; first one there, gets it!); feel free to stop by whenever you can. We're looking for ideas for games and activities, and for donations of items for gift baskets, cool door prizes, and whatever you'd like to contribute. We're also looking for volunteers to help us coordinate and work the event. First item on the agenda is finding a venue. If you are familiar with the Greater Cleveland area and can recommend a place to stage our event (at a very modest cost, or best - free of charge), we are open to suggestions. Ideally, the place we select will welcome ferrets. (What's a party without ferts?) For those of you who are unable to attend our organizing meeting, we'll fill you in on details as the event planning unfolds. Don't let time or distance prevent you from being involved. We welcome any and all input from all of you. If you are attending, feel free to bring any items you'd like to contribute! If your are unable to attend but would like to help by donating you may do so by sending to the below address. Many thanks for your ongoing support! Crystal L.
