Hello Everyone,
Here is some information and a reminder about our 'Family Fun Day with the K-9s' that is being hosted by The UMass Extension 4-H Youth Development Program.
The event will be held this Sunday, April 22nd 2012 from 1-4pm on the Topsfield Fairgrounds. All should enter through Gate/Parking Lot A. We will be in The Clubhouse (The Red Building), The Arena, and outdoors (weather permitting).
We will have agility demonstrations, K-9 demonstrations, driving demonstration by miniature horses (again, weather permitting...), silent auction, raffles, an open ambulance for kids, photography and numerous local businesses and vendors who have graciously volunteered their time. There is also a home show taking place in Coolidge Hall, which is separate from us but can be visited as well. Admission is free, and will take place rain or shine.
Proceeds from this event will benefit Massachusetts Vest-A-Dog Inc.;
Massachusetts Vest-a-Dog, Inc. is an independent, all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)3 organization, having provided over 300 bulletproof K-9 vests since 2000, has recently expanded their mission to provide support for the following purposes:
1. essential equipment for police / law enforcement K-9 programs throughout Massachusetts;
2. training distinct from customary and usual training for police / law enforcement K-9 programs throughout Massachusetts;

Attendance, donations and participation is greatly appreciated and very helpful. Please join us for a fun day with your family and friends! Also, I have attached a flyer that you can feel free to share with your community.
