2012 Border Terrier National Specialty Holiday Event
You are invited to participate in "A Border Terrier Holiday Ornament Celebration" at the 2012 BTCA National Specialty, June 9-14, Oconomowoc, WI.
As you do your 2011 holiday shopping and enjoy the post holiday sales, we invite you to think about creating a border terrier ornament to share with everyone attending the National Specialty in June. All you have to do to enter is to "create" a border terrier ornament. It can be for hanging on a tree, or it may be a freestanding ornament. It can be from scratch or you can take an existing ornament and modify it to look like a border terrier. For example, take a wooden dog ornament and paint it to look like a border terrier or perhaps paint a border terrier on a Christmas tree bulb/ornament. You can display the ornament in any way you wish. There will be a small tree at the specialty if you choose to hang your ornament. You may enter more than one ornament. You will have to donate your ornament, so make two if you want to keep one for yourself.
At the specialty, everyone will be able to purchase raffle tickets to vote on their favorite ornament. The creator of the ornament receiving the most “votes” will be announced after the Parade of Honor on Wednesday, June 13. He/she will win ½ of the proceeds. The other half will help defray the costs of the specialty.
After the winning ornament is announced, there will be a drawing for all of the ornaments.
If you are unable to attend the 2012 Specialty and still wish to participate, you may mail me the ornament and I will see to it that you are entered. Contact me for my address. If you have questions you can contact me at gllama@aol.com
I'm looking forward to celebrating "A Border Terrier Holiday Celebration" with you.
Thank you,
Cara Greenwood
Happy Holidays!
