Great job everybody!!! It was the best event of the season!

How we can improve?

  1. Hand out taxi money before the performers perform
  2. Do not allow board members to purchase raffle tickets
  3. I thought (HenryLaxen ) the raffle ticket sales were dragging on too long. We should announce last call and then have all volunteers out there filling last minute orders
  4. Announcer - You should always have 5-10 minutes of filler like jokes, stories, anecdotes, puzzles, etc. in case things go wrong. (Sally, you did a great job!)

Any other comments are welcome

From Alison- At Canucks tonight, everyone approached me and said that they really enjoyed our fund raiser and wanted to know when the next one was. :-)

There were a few who liked my Amigos T-shirt and wanted to know where they could buy one. Is it possible for me to have 3 of small, medium and large along with the doggie ones to have here in Centro so I could sell them?

About Valerie's beautiful gold pins, just a thought, wouldn't it be nice to have similar gold hearts with a doggie engraved with Amigos de los Animales ? Would be nice to give out since Val's gold hearts were such a hit. If it costs too much, then scap the idea. Want to make money, not spend it, right?

HenryLaxen – we thought of that too, and Nadine is going to do what she does best, go ebay shopping this summer and look for them. They would make great little thank you gifts and door prizes for all of our events.

Sally, you were a big hit with everyone. They said you did a wonderful job. Thank you so much.
