Dear Friend of Home for Good Dog Rescue:
Mark your calendar for September 12, 2015, the first Saturday after Labor Day—for Home for Good Dog Rescue‘s 5th annual Bark-A-Que at the Village Green in Summit, New Jersey. We would like YOU to be part of this fun family event where adopters from our rescue and their dogs, meet up with their siblings and foster families. The Bark-A-Que is your chance to not only support a local dog rescue organization, but to promote your own business to the local community!
It promises to be a fun-filled day with vendors, games, entertainment, and activities for the whole family plus a small dog adoption event from 11 am-4 pm. Last year there were over 2,000 attendees and 50 vendors! We will have contests and prizes for dogs as well as an adoption parade that features Home for Good’s adopted dogs. Each family will receive a free doggie tote bag and gift at the registration table when they make a $5 donation! The Bark-A-Que welcomes all dog lovers, their dogs and families.
Home For Good Rescue is a volunteer based non-profit 501(c)(3), (EIN:273373388) animal rescue established in August 2010 in Summit, New Jersey, with offices in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. Our group rescues dogs from high-kill shelters in the South, transports them to our rescue in New Jersey, nurtures them in our network of foster families and adopts them into loving homes for good. We strive to give these dogs a second chance at life. Since being founded five years ago, we have saved over 3,400 dogs from being euthanized and adopted them to deserving families.
We are seeking vendors to support our organization by securing vendor space at our event. Spaces are available on a first come, first served basis. Spaces measure 10x10 feet and can be reserved for a minimum donation of $50.00. The attached vendor reservation form and contract provides all the guidelines for participation. Please complete, sign and return the attached contract. If you are unable to attend the Bark-A-Que but would like to participate, you can donate items for our Tricky Tray. All checks are payable to: Home for Good Dog Rescue and mailed to:
