February FUNdraisers to Support the Dog Park!

Hello PWC Dogs Supporters!

A tremendous outpouring of community support is already in the works, and we want to make sure all you dog park lovers know about what's going on on the fundraising front.

Tomorrow is the first day of February, and there are already two great events being planned on our behalf. So without further ado, our February FUNdraisers!

The first fundraiser is taking place now, and will be all through the month of February. Amanda Sterber, a Scentsy consultant in the area, will be donating a protion of her wickless candle sales to the dog park (anywhere from 20-25%). Additionally, in the month of February all Scentsy products are 10% off for customers, so it's very much a "give and get" month-long fundraiser! A flyer is imbedded below, but if you would like a printable version to post in your place of business, local community bulletin board, vet, store you frequent, etc. please e-mail us at princewilliamcountydogs@gmail.com

They also have an adorable "I Love My Pets" wickless candle that will be discontinued soon, a great feature item to promote and purchase for your dog-friendly homes! You can also promote Amanda and her fundraiser by sharing the fundraiser online via her website at https://wicklessmoments.scentsy.us/ (this link will take you straight to the fundraiser). Be sure to also like her on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/WicklessByAmanda as a way to say "thank you for supporting our dog park!"

The second fundraiser is being hosted on Sunday, Feb 12 at Dogtopia of Manassas.
They will be having an indoor dog park event, and charging $5 for current Dogtopia Manassas customers, $10 for non-customers as a benefit for the PWC Dog Park (all attending dogs must be up to date on their vaccinations to party, just as they should be when the actual dog park opens!). What better way to spend time with your dog than from the comfort of inside while they play with their fellow dogs, especially when it's going to support a permanent dog park they can play at whenever they want?
Many thanks to Dogtopia, who are already promoting this on their Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dogtopia-of-Manassas/27877945953?ref=ts so you can take a look (and give them a Like while you're at it).

On the publicity front, keep an eye our for us in the Lake Ridge HOA Newsletter for monthly placement in and fundraising updates, the Old Bridge Observer, and NOVADog magazine, who have offered to promote our efforts!

Finally, for those of you who missed the PWC Park Authority meeting last week, the board was very pleased about our report and the efforts we have in place. They are really excited to see us looking organized and following up on our promise to raise the funds needed for the park.

If there is any way you would like to get involved to support our many exciting updates, please don't hesitate to us know via an email to princewilliamcountydogs@gmail.com.  Also, save the date of Feb 9th for our next meeting. We are till working on the meeting space, to be announced in the coming days, but please mark your calendar for that date!
