<P><BR>The information packets for the 2011 Tri-State Basset Hound Rescue </P>
<P>BoardWaddle are in the mail! If you don't receive one and wish to attend or donate,</P>
<P>please contact me and I'll get one to you asap. As always, please make your </P>
<P>reservations as soon as you can. The dates are April 15th & 16th.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>We have lots of great Pawction items, including a large metal and clay piece by artist Linda Renner</P>
<P>that features the Grand Marshalls and rescue Bassets riding in the parade truck. We also will</P>
<P>be auctioning places on the TriState merchandise trailer for your hound's picture. We'll be installing</P>
<P>a new protective photo wrap with the winner's pics, and spaces are limited. A great way to have</P>
<P>your hound's mug displayed for all to see! The Dinner and Pawction will be held on Friday evening</P>
<P>at the Greate Bay Country Club again this year, and of course the weekend kicks off with the Basset </P>
<P>Olympics on Friday afternoon as usual.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>There will be arts and crafts vendors at the picnic this year, as well as vendors selling lots of dog</P>
<P>related items. Some other animal rescues will be on hand, and we'll have the TriState store, food vendors, </P>
<P>and dog food representatives as well.</P>
<P>And of course lots of fun games to play. Meadowlark Lemon is the parade Grand Marshall this year,</P>
<P>joined by short leggers Moose and Sunny.</P>
<P> </P>
<P>And of course all proceeds go directly to Tri-State Basset Hound Rescue to help rescue</P>
<P>needy Basset Hounds.</P>
<P>Looking forward to seeing old friends, and making many new ones!</P>
