2009 OAR Garage Sale A Success!


Despite being savaged by a monsoon on Thursday night and a blazing sun the rest of the weekend, chairwoman Beth Muccillo and her many volunteers made the 2009 OAR Garage Sale a huge success! 

We made $9500 for the cats, surpassing last year's record. Proceeds from the garage sale are earmarked for rescue operating expenses.  We have 2 1/2 semis loaded with the leftovers to donate to two other rescues that are having a sale the end of July, so even more animals will be helped.

Special thanks to Beth, whose incredible organizational skills make it all look easy and belie the fact that she has been acquiring, storing, and pricing items for months. Beth and husband Dolf sacrifice their garage for storage for months and as soon as the garage sale is over, they start filling it again with items for the winter eBay auction! 

We are also grateful to Steve Jonson, who picked up donations throughout the tri-state area  to assure that we had as many treasures for sale as possible. Steve slept at the building to protect the items once the sale was set up. So as not to waste his time, he also trapped some ferals in the parking lot - they have now been TNR'd. Now THAT'S dedication to OAR!

Thanks so much to everyone who donated, volunteered, baked, priced, set up, shopped, and packed up again. We could never have done it without your help!
