We asked Solsey's talented Grammy is she would be kind enough to paint a picture of Sol that we could raffle off to benefit the Sol Sunshine Memorial Fund. Grammy happily complied and I am very happy to announce the raffle for this one of a kind Solsey painting (pictured above).
Here's how the raffle works:
- Raffle tickets are $5 per ticket or you can purchase 3 tickets for $12.
- You can purchase tickets by making a donation directly to Central Florida Pug Rescue via PayPal for your ticket amount using the PayPal form below. You do not need a PayPal account to purchase a ticket.
- After you make your donation via PayPal, email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) a copy of the donation receipt sent to you by PayPal.
- Shortly after receiving your receipt, I will email you your raffle ticket numbers. If you do not hear from me within 48 hours send me another email to make sure I received your receipt. If you still do not hear from me leave a comment on this post.
- The raffle winner will be drawn on Friday, October 1, 2010. I will notify the winner via email and once I have gotten in touch with the winner I will announce the winner on the Pug Blog and also share how much money was raised for the Sol Sunshine Memorial Fund.
- If you are outside the US or Canada please contact me via email (.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)) prior to purchasing tickets to make sure we can ship to your location.
- The painting size is 12" x 12"
And incase you were wondering here is a little bit about the artist of the painting.
Artist Sheryl Pascal Gormley currently works in both watercolor and acrylics. Her awards include numerous cash prizes as well as ribbons. She is also an accomplished photographer and writer. 'Almost Scared to Death', her current novel, is nearing completion. The illustrations for her four children's books are in the final stages. As President of Ormond Writers' League she was largely responsible for getting the members to complete an anthology. Her cover photograph was taken on Daytona Beach, Florida. The paperback book, 'Peanut Butter and Jellyfish', is a collection of diverse short stories, published in 2003, available from InfinityPublishing.com

Just a reminder, the 2011 Calendar Contest closes to submissions on September 12, 2010. So round up your cute pug pictures and get them submitted. Also, don't forget to tell your friends.
And remember, $5 from each calendar sale will be donated to the pug rescue group of the purchaser's choice from our list of eligible pug rescue groups when a calendar is bought. If you don't see your favorite pug rescue group on the list, contact them and tell them to send an email to .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

It's back! Believe it or not it is time to open up the 2011 Calendar Contest to submissions.
The submission process works the same as in previous years. You may submit as many pictures as you like, however we ask that you take a look through all your photos and only submit your best shots. Also, all submissions must abide by the contest terms and conditions.
A portion of the proceeds from calendar sales will be donated to pug rescue again this year. However, we have changed things up a bit. When a 2011 Calendar is purchased, $5 will be donated to any pug rescue group you wish from our pug rescue group list. Why do you have to pick from a list? The list gives us a chance to verify the 501c3 status of the organization. So, be sure to contact your favorite pug rescue group if you don't see them on the list and tell them to contact .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) by October 15, 2010 to get on our donation list.
Looking forward to seeing everyone's submissions!

In an effort to make commenting a bit easier, I removed the CAPTCHA (the word you had to type) from the comment form. The main purpose of the CAPTCHA was to cut down on the amount of comment spam. I am trying a different approach that should also reduce comment spam and also make commenting a bit easier for all those commenting for the right reasons. I will still be moderating the comments, so there could be a small delay before your comment appears on the website. If the new spam filter works well, I may remove the moderation process, but, for now I am going to keep moderation in place while we test things out.
If you have any problems adding any comments send me an email (.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)) and I will help you out.

I am very happy to share that Pugpossessed raised $65 for the Sol Sunshine Memorial Fund during the month of April. The donation is being made by check, so I don't know if it will show in Pledgie, but I just wanted to let you all know that $65 is on its way to help the senior pugs of Central Florida Pug Rescue.
Thanks to all who shopped at Pugpossessed and a huge thank you to Punchy of Pugpossessed for her generosity and for choosing Sol's Sunshine Memorial fund.

Believe it or not it is almost the end of April and that means there are only a few more days left to shop at Pugpossessed's Etsy shop and have it benefit the Sol Sunshine Memorial fund. So, if you are thinking of making any purchases you have until April 30, 2010. $5 from each sale will be donated to Sol's fund setup to help the hospice pugs of Central Florida Pug Rescue.
