Help Fill a Basket for the Auction

While we would love to receive "complete" donations  - i.e.,  items that can be auctioned as provided, we recognize that some people would like to donate smaller items that can be combined to form lovely "baskets" for auction.  We thought we would share some ideas for themed baskets, with you, in the hopes that you will help fill these baskets.  Basket themes include - Golfer's Dream Accessories; My Large Dog's Favorite Toys; My Small Dog's Favorite Toys; My Favorite Kitchen Utensils; My Garden; Movie Night; Game Night; Snack Attack, and Children's Art Basket.   
Vacation at a State Park

We'd love to receive donations from you -  for the above or a donation of your choice.  If it is something that you would like, we are sure our auction attendees will also.  Ideas include - Vacations – timeshare or other; Collectibles or Antiques; Art; Wine, Beer and related sundries; Tickets to an Event (Sports, theatre, etc…); Sports Memorabilia; Books; Tools; Sporting Goods; Memberships; Professional Services;
Restaurant and Grocery Certificates; Pet Toys and Gear; Wine Tastings; Spa certificates; Gift Cards; Gourmet Foods; find something unique that interests you!
Remember -  the success of our Auction is dependent on the donations that we receive from you!  All the proceeds go towards the care of the wonderful dogs who become part of the VGSR family.  Your support is appreciated.
