this is the flag signed by George Bell… former Toronto Blue Jay and MLB MVP

George signed it in 4 panels, this is also a top quality flag supplied by George himself

I have a few other items to photograph and post – think I know why I had to pay for overweight luggage… LOL

This is one of the aprons Deanna donated – the other has the map of the Dominican on it:

This is Gauva-Gusa donated by Marianne – there is a farm outside of Puerto Plata which places the bottle over the fruit when it starts to grow. After fruit is grown, they let the fruit fall into the bottle and then add rum… you can drink (VERY cold) and when it is empty, you can refill and make another batch – this can be done several times.

The list keeps growing! Hope to see lots of people there!

Boy – lots of great items… if you are interested in anything and cannot make it to the Fiesta – contact someone who is attending and arrangements can be made to bid for you…

Remember – the money is going to a GOOD cause – NONE of the executive make anything on this (actually we buy some of these items and donate them)… AND we all pay the same as everyone else to attend!!

BTW – Cumpleaños feliz to Captain2002 (aka Master Scrounger)… See ya at the Fiesta!

Good idea, where is the attendance list?
There’s a couple of things that could be mailed out without costing an arm and a leg

bryanbrown 2014-08-24 20:27:51 UTC #7

Debbie, the attendee list is on a different site. Olive and I are just a couple of those who will be attending. If you send us the item and bid amount we would be happy to bid on your behalf.

bobfromcanada 2014-08-24 21:16:34 UTC #8

Do I have permission to cut&paste the current list of attendees?

captain2002 2014-08-24 23:05:36 UTC #9

Bob, no one would say no to you with the size of your wallet at the silent auction, and bring your cheque book too…LOL BESIDES WHAT HARM CAN IT DO…

byerbill & Sandy …received your entry fee yesterday…with thanks. I will have Bryan update the list !

bryanbrown 2014-08-28 20:29:06 UTC #16

I’ve talked to Rod and he will confirm the expiry date for the dinners but thinks that a year is a safe answer.
