Pipedream Farm Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Mark and I wish to thank everyone for participating in this trial benefiting our brother-in-law. Sue Asten helped keep a fun, relaxed environment for all those nervous novice handlers! We also owe a special thank you to Todd Layfield and Peggy Simpson. Without their help, the trial would not be possible. Mark and I donated all costs for running the trial so that all donations and entry fees could be contributed to HELPHOPELIVE on Tim's behalf. I am pleased to say we have raised over $3,200! Todd and Peggy again outdid themselves hosting a delicious handler's dinner. They also generously offered to donate dinner donations for Tim as well. Trial photos are available through photoalchemy.co Lynn of Photoalchemy has graciously offered to donate a portion of photo sales to HELPHOPELIVE for Tim. It is truly touching to know what a caring community of handlers we have that came out to show support. Again, THANK YOU! Renee Saturday: Ranch 1. Pam Gardner Midge 2. Kyra Costanzo Tess 3.

NCStarkey Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hi Renee, Thanks for the great news about the trial! It is absolutely wonderful that the trial was so successful, and that you raised so much money on Tim's behalf. My thanks again to you, Mark, Sue, Peggy, Todd, and everyone who attended to help make this a truly special event. Regards, nancy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue R Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Thanks, Renee and Mark, for this wonderful trial for a great cause. My only complaint was not being able to be there, because I am sure I missed a quality and fun day. Very best wishes to Tim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilyfalk Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Wow, what a great donation! I enjoyed the information available at the trial and am glad to hear that he's been doing better. You guys are getting pretty good at hosting trials...how about we do this again come fall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemist Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Lynn of Photoalchemy has graciously offered to donate a portion of photo sales to HELPHOPELIVE for Tim. Thanks so much to the trial hosts, the judge, and to all whose made this trial so much fun! Pipedream Farm is a class act! Just for clarification: I'm donating all sales (less expenses) to HELPHOPELIVE. (I'm not a good enough photographer to keep any portion for myself, nor would I want to keep anything that should go to helping Tim!). Still frantically trying to finish processing photos. (It's taking me longer than I'd hoped because I keep learning new tricks in Photoshop, which is new to me). I plan to send out some "evaluation prints" today, and to have the first set up on my website tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
