I am organizing the Coats for Kids Halloween Splash event, and we LOVED the tennis ball jump that we did in Auburn this year, and thought that would be a great way to get money for the Coats for Kids Charity. So we are looking to you guys for donations for the prizes. They don't necissarily need to be doggie, but something other people would want. If you can help out, please post online, or private message me. Thanks for your help.

Hi Ashley:
I have organized the tennis ball jump for the past several years here in Auburn. Let me suggest that you get a team together and contact your local merchants. Even if it is a small donation you can put a bunch of prizes together, such as I did. Since the donation to jump is usually $20.00 I asked that the prize be at least that much. Most were extremely generous. Hope that helps and feel free to contact me if you need any other information.

yea we did a raffle at our even at tamarack junction to get new ramps. We just went in the phone book and looked up every pet store, outdoor store, anything that we thought would relate to dog people and just went into the stores and asked. It took awhile but we did get a lot of generous donations that way.
