Dog Park Fundraiser
Our organization has committed to raise funds for donation to the City of Frisco for amenities in, or maintenance of, the new Dog Park. Our 2008 goal is to donate $5,000 to the City of Frisco.

Please help us reach our goal by having dinner or drinks after 4 p.m. at the Tin Star Restaurant
Frisco, Texas Tuesday, January 29th.

15% of Tin Star's proceeds will be donated to our organization, once the minimum sales threshold of $2100 is reached.

Take-out orders also count toward the minimum sales needed for the night, so if you don't have time to eat at the restaurant, you can always bring dinner home to the family.

Please pass this invitation on to anyone else you think would be interested. Tin Star has great food, and a great assortment of drinks and appetizers, too!
Tuesday Jan 29th from 4:00 to Close

Thank you so much for your on-going support for a dog park in Frisco!
