Georgetown Lions and Optimists Club Dog Easter Egg Hunt
Attached, button below, is a photo of the Georgetown Optimists Club Dog Easter egg hunt that was hosted by the Georgetown Optimists Club and sponsored by Floyd Farm & Feed. The Georgetown Lions Clubs (President Kasandra Ramsey) also participated and I was ask to attend as the Leader Dog Chair for District 25E along with PDG Sheryl and Future Leader Dog (FLD) Freya. Georgetown is located in south central Indiana just north of Louisville, Kentucky.
The event hosted about 20 vendors with various goods for sale or knowledge to impart to the 75+ attendees. The main event was the Dog Easter egg hunt in which Floyd Farm & Feed hid over 160 plastic eggs filled with a kibble and a raffle ticket. One special egg had the “golden” ticket which entitled the finder to a year’s supply of dog food (a 30# bag of Exclusion dog food per month for 12 months). After the egg hunt raffle tickets were drawn and ticket holders were able to choose from a number of gifts that Floyd Farm & Feed was giving away. In total there were over 35+ gifts that were donated along with the year’s supply of dog food by Floyd Farm and Feed! The Georgetown Lions was also asking for donations to their Tool Raffle, where tickets were given away for each $2 donation and after the egg hunt raffle, a ticket was drawn which enabled the winner to enter 6 tickets into the Oregon 40V Lawn Equipment Tool Raffle which will be drawn on Monday, May 31.
During the organization of this event the event committee decided to donate all proceeds to Leader Dogs for the Blind! I’ll be sending a check to LDB for $279 on behalf of the Georgetown Optimists and Lions Club and wish to acknowledge Floyd Farm & Feed for sponsoring the event. Pictured is Nicole from Floyd Farm & Feed and her dog Floyd (GoldenDoodle) and myself along with FLD Freya (lab-golden mix). In the background is Lion Dan Lee our newest District 25E Indiana Lions for Leader Dog Trustee who will be taking my place starting in July 2021.
