Hello all,
After a couple days of decompressing I am finally getting back in the swing of things. Holy moly...over 400 individual dogs in 3 days! The contributions from all involved was truly overwhelming with the amount of participants last weekend. This was far and away the largest dock jumping event ever put on. So many stepped up to the plate when we needed help and it made the event run extremely well. Thank you for helping make a dream of mine come true. Putting together an event that raises well over $100K for Make-a-Wish is no small feat. It takes a tremendous amount of effort and selflessness on the part of hundreds of people who's only reimbursement is the smile of a child. Paid in full. Juanda Anderson, the photographer for our venue has a great website that will shortly have all the images from the weekend up for viewing and purchase. She is found at www.cameraanimal.com Please take some time to view your fabulous pooches on there. For those of you who couldn't make the event, hop online and check out some of the images of the Wish Kids. Hopefully you'll get a small sense of what this event truly is all about. Thanks to everyone, Mark Stuart, Karla, Hogan, and Friar

Mark -
Can you please share what the Splash Dogs raised for Make a Wish. I know many of us are dyeing to know. Those kids are so very special.

We don't have the final count just yet, but what I can say is that our estimated amount was going to be about $2,000. We are going to well exceed that amount from the Splashdogs arena.
Overall last year $115K was raised from all revenue sources. This year we are expecting to exceed that by a good margin as well. I'll let you all know. Mark
