A Note From The Editor: Thank you to everyone who attended our first open day of 2011. As usual everyone at Homefinders avidly checked the weather forecast daily and March 20th delivered as promised! The sun shone and the crowds flocked in! An excellent day all round and we raised over £1000! The knitted dog coats sold extremely well and the lucky dogs looked very smart.
STOP PRESS: Homefinders have received an amazing £2900 from the memorial meeting on 18th May
Thank you so very, very much to everyone who helped to raise this fantastic amount. Yet again the sun shone for our next greyhound gettogether at Wolterton Hall. We had an excellent turn out of greyhounds and owners for a very pleasant stroll around the lake.
Further in this newsletter you will find details of our next open day. This will include our fun greyhound show. Also details of our annual auction, with a bit of a twist this year! For further details you can phone David on 0845 458 3797. Please continue to send your letters, stories, photos and poems to me at lynda_eden@hotmail.com or post to: Mrs Lynda Eden, 20, Bernard Road, Cromer, Norfolk, NR27 9AW.
More details will appear in our next newsletter. On Sunday 22nd May we had a fantastic turnout of greyhounds and their owners at our first event held at the stadium. We were treated to a tour around the kennels and the vet’s treatment room. This was followed by a walk, or run, around the track.
Following the track walk we headed off to the park. We must have been quite a sight for the car drivers and their passengers! After the walk we headed back to the stadium where there was a roaring trade in bacon rolls!
I am looking forward to seeing lots of you throughout the year at our open days and events. Lynda. Yarmouth Greyhound Homefinders, a branch of the Retired Greyhound Trust Registered Charity No: 269668
