It's about that time!

Okie dokie girls.....so I told you that we had some kinda cool announcements to make today, and I thought it was about time to let you know what they were.

Mandy has been one busy little lady again this past week. She's a woman on a mission.....don't mess with her. She might run you over she's going that fast. Seriously!

We have secured our location for the fundraiser. We are extremely pleased to officially announce that Edgeworth Bowling Club have opened their doors for us on July 14th, 2007 for a 12 hour non-stop crop. (he he he that rhymes)

To help us kick start our fundraising efforts Edgeworth Bowling Club has already donated prizes for our raffle on the day. Thanks guys, we are very thankful for your support!

We are planning more than one raffle for this event. There will be raffles and lucky door prizes on the day. But the exciting news is that we are also planning some exciting online raffles for those of you who aren't close by.

And for all of the scrapbookers out there, starting next week, we will be issuing a few challenges. For the cost of a donation to MDA NSW we will send out an email challenge, you complete the challenge, send us a picture of the completed project, the projects will be featured in an online gallery and we'll pick a winner.

We would also like to announce the support of some wonderful women from the scrapbooking community. We have been very fortunate so far in our search for support and we are overwhelmed by the people who have without question, offered their support to us.

So now I'd like to tell you that two wonderful women have put forward their talents in support of this wonderful cause.

Thank you so much to Kate Mason and Carol-Lea Morgan, who are both generously giving of their time and talent to help us out. We cannot thank you enough. Though I will certainly try....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.

So, thats it from me today. I think I have given you enough information for a fundraiser overload. Please stop by again soon to see what we have in store for you next.

thanks again
cheers
Lauren.

Edited to add: Mandy has just let me know that three more well known scrapbookers out there who are currently planning ways in which they can help us out. I'll let you know more about that when I am allowed to.

ALSO: I forgot to mention that on the day of the fundraiser we will have a shop there supporting us. The lovely ladies from Wallsend Crafters World will be there with all sorts of scrapbooking gear in tow so that you can pick up those bits and pieces that you forgot to bring along....or other stuff you just HAVE to have.
I will fill you in on the finer details when it's all been arranged.
