<DIV>Another TSBHR BoardWaddle update!</DIV>
<DIV>We will have proxy bidding available for our Pawction again this year.</DIV>
<DIV>The items are being loaded onto our site for viewing as I write this.</DIV>
<DIV>A very unique item is to have your hound's photo displayed on our</DIV>
<DIV>TSBHR merchandise trailer as part of the new photo wrap that will</DIV>
<DIV>be installed. Spaces are limited so bid early - bid often! We also</DIV>
<DIV>have many other great items, including a one-of-a-kind scuplture of</DIV>
<DIV>the parade truck full of Tri-State hounds, created for us by artist Linda Renner.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Of course the Olympics will be held as usual on Friday afternoon, followed by the</DIV>
<DIV>dinner/Pawction. We've managed to reduce the cost of Friday night's Dinner/Pawction </DIV>
<DIV>to $20 per person, and the Tri-State store will have some great new merchandise for</DIV>
<DIV>sale- A gorgeous Easter flag, some great garden stones, cute-as-can-be birthday Bassets</DIV>
<DIV>and a beautiful new messenger bag will be among the items - get yours Friday night before </DIV>
<DIV>they sell out! And of course we'll have plenty of the 2011 BoardWaddle shirts available.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The parade on Saturday will feature all the Bassets, with short leggers Grand Marshalls Sunny and Moose</DIV>
<DIV>joined by long legger Grand Marshall Meadowlark Lemon! All are welcome to the picnic following the parade,</DIV>
<DIV>where we'll have lots of great artists and craftspeople, dog related vendors, other rescues on hand, and delicious food vendors. And of course the newly stocked Tri-State merchandise store. Enter your hound in one of the Basset games, or the costume contest, and eat and shop and visit with friends. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you haven't made your reservations, do so now!</DIV>
<DIV>See you at the "Waddle! </DIV>
