Another easy way to make trophy/rosette donations is on the
DFWESSA is gladly accepting donations for the
morning breakfast and the evening hospitality suite.
The 2008 ESSFTA National will be here before we know it.
The Dallas-Fort Worth club promises this to be one National to be
remembered!
In addition to special events that are planned,
we are having not only morning hospitality,
but also evening hospitality as well.
You can be a big part of the success of the
2008 National by donating to the hospitality experience.
Any contribution will gladly be accepted and contributors
will be acknowledged at Show Central and on the
National website (www.dfwessa.com/08national).
Just to make it more interesting, we are encouraging clubs
or groups of individuals to compete in our "BEST IN SUITE" contest.
The winner of the contest will receive $500 and will be acknowledged at the
Awards Banquet. Here's how it works:
Using the already reserved National suite, YOU can "take over for the evening".
The suite can be adorned with decorations, scrapbooks, and the like to
showcase your area of the country, your club, or your breeding programs.
Our Hospitality Chair is standing by to assist you with the selection of
food and beverages to be served. In order to be eligible
for the "BEST IN SUITE" contest, a minimum donation of $500 is required.
This means if you win the contest, you could receive your full donation back!
Multiple clubs and multiple individuals can
combine their efforts to compete in the "BEST IN SUITE" contest, also.
Again, any contribution will be gladly accepted.
Hospitality donations may be sent to:
