Well the 2010 MWWG is in the history books. Huge Thank You to all of the generous people that donated items for auction or raffle and to everyone that donated their time, talent and/or money to WTCARES. Together, including the shirts we raised a bit more than $4200.00! That should help with little Skeeter's ears! We are already starting to plan for next year's WAG so be on the lookout for special WT items throughout the year. Thinking next year we will start the party on Friday night??

We always get wrapped up in the festivities and forget the picture, This year we made sure to get the group picture before anyone got away!
New T-Shirts Available as Fundraiser
ReplyDeleteTo support WTCARES, the MWWG is offering a great embroidered T-shirt design with 100% of your purchase price donated to rescue.
The T-shirts are Hanes Beefy-Ts 100% pre-shrunk cotton in “pebble” which is a neutral shade. The shirts are embroidered with an adorable Welsh puppy (donated by artist Cherry O'Neill) sporting a red collar and the words “Got Welsh? We Do” and “MWWG 2010”. (Design shown). The embroidery is on the left chest of the T-shirt.
The T-shirts are available in sizes S through XXL for $15. Shirts also are available in 3X for $16 and 4X for $17 by advance order only. According to Hanes, the sizes are as follows:
S = 34-36
M = 38-40
L = 42-44
XL = 46-48
XL = 50-52
Some shirts will be available for purchase at the MWWG in sizes L, XL and XXL. To guarantee your size/availability, place your order in advance. Those attending MWWG can pick it up and pay at the MWWG. Those not attending can order now and your shirt will be shipped to you in September. There will be a small charge for shipping.
If you are not in the Mid-West or don’t want the “MWWG 2010,” you can order the shirt without that tag line.
Please email advance orders or questions to corkywelsh@comcast.net Indicate your size and whether you will pick up your shirt at the MWWG or need to have the shirt shipped to you.
Support WTCARES! Remember, the full $15 purchase price of this embroidered, quality shirt will go to support WTCARES.
