2020 Spring Basset Blast
Saturday, April 25, 2020 Noon – 4pm
ABC VIP MEMBERS ENTER AT 11:00 AM!
The Dome Arena & Minett Hall 2695 East Henrietta Rd, Rochester, NY 14467
Minett Hall features 23,000 square feet of indoor basset fun! If your basset is well-socialized, then he/she can be off leash for the event so they can run, romp & play with the other bassets! Your basset isn’t a social butterfly? No problem! We just ask that you keep your basset on a leash or in an x-pen during the event. Only bassets and shorter can attend!
Admission for the event is $15 for the first adult, $10 for each
additional adult (17 and up). Children 16 & under and all bassets enter for FREE! Even though admission is only $15, we will be awarding prizes to the top 5 pledge earners who bring in the most money through a combination of online donations and pledge money turned in upon arrival Saturday!! Please pre-register at www.nybasset.org

Here are two great ideas to increase your fundraising! Top 5 fundraisers receive prizes!
1) Facebook Fundraising! Start a fundraiser on Facebook for ABC! Here’s how:
➢ When Facebook asks “What’s on your mind”, click the 3 dots on the right ➢ Select “support nonprofit” ➢ In “search for a nonprofit to support” type in “All Bassets Cherished” and select us ➢ Before sharing, write a note as to why you are raising money for ABC…because you
adopted an amazing basset from us, because you volunteer for us, or just because you love bassets!
➢ Hit “share”. Be sure to share your post weekly, tag your dog friends, tag your friends you just bought girl scout cookies from, tag your friends whose home party you just attended.
➢ Remember…it’s $15 to get in the door…set up a page and have others donate so you get in FREE! (Please bring proof of online donations at entrance).
2) Dimes for Dogs Did you know that a standard 16 oz water bottle holds $90 in dimes?! Put the label below on a water bottle and leave it in your entrance way, dresser, or kitchen table. Fill the bottle with your spare change every day and watch the money accumulate!
