Don’t be the only attendee this year to miss out on one of the most anticipated events of the Specialty...the Friday night Rescue Benefit at the Hospitality Room, Diamond Inn-Lover Level!  In addition to the meal, the evening will include the annual Rescue Parade, ticket raffle and a thrilling live auction of Border Collie merchandise and other great prizes.

Enjoy a mouthwatering meal catered this year by Rich and Charlie's Italian Restaurant:
Meat and Vegetarian Pastas • Caesar Salad • House Salad
Home-baked Italian Bread • Delicious Dessert Choices
Soft Drinks • BYOB (Bring your own adult beverages)

• Advanced dinner reservations are NOT necessary, but are greatly appreciated to get an accurate head count for the caterer. Take out is available for those who would like to support rescue but can’t spend the evening at the Benefit.

• Between now and October 20th, please consider donating one or more items for the raffle or auction. In the weeks and months prior to the event, we need to gather hundreds of items, including goodies for dogs or their owners, Border Collie decorations, books, training and sports equipment, and livestock-related items. Raffle items or monetary donations for buying raffle items may be sent to Sharon Savage at the address below. Alternatively, merchandise donations may be brought to the event and dropped off at the Diamond Inn hospitality room prior to Friday. Please contact Sharon through the front desk to let her know you will be dropping off an item.

• Volunteers are needed to help both before and during the event on Friday. Please contact Sharon if you can help. There are many different jobs, and even an hour of your time would be much appreciated.

RESERVATION INFORMATION:
To assist us in ordering the right amount of food, we’re hoping that most Friday revelers can pre-register and pre-pay by September 1, 2006.  However, remember that “walk-ins” are always welcome at the Benefit!
