BAP Regional Raffle

Our Regional Breeder Assistance Program chair, Charlene Campbell, is doing a terrific job with helping pedigreed cats find homes in their time of need; however, we aren't keeping up our end by providing sufficient funds to cover expenses (vets, etc.). To rectify this, the Region is holding a raffle for a $500 Visa Gift Card. Chances will be available at Southern Region shows between now and Thanksgiving. The drawing will take place at the Tarheel Triangle show in Raleigh at the end of November. Chances are being sold for $5 per chance or five for $20.  They can be obtained from Lynn Search, Deb Curtis, and Jacqui Bennett.  You can also buy them from Lynn via email.
