#1 Fundraising Team Again!


My fundraising team Kribbit's Kritters was the #1 fundraising team for the second year in a row. We raised a total of $14,649.43!! We didn't reach our goal of $20,000 but we did surpass our number from last year by $487. Besides winning overall fundraising team, our team captain Susie was the top individual fundraiser with $4,025.90, team member Jean was the #2 fundraiser this year with $3,405.63 and our team member Laurie Dobson was the #3 fundraiser with $1,774! Our team is already thinking about how we can do better next year.


#1 Fundraiser!! Susie & Rudy
Since we were the top fundraisers from last year our team kicked off the walk. There were 200 runners and 450 people signed up for the walk. There was an estimated 2,500 people that attended the event. Unfortunately Lollypop did not reach their fundrasing goal of $136,500 but they did raise $122,600.

Hot Dog Bobbing Contest


Peanut did not win the hotdog bobbing contest but she had so much fun eating hotdogs! She did participate in the flyball demonstration with her team 2 Fast Fur U.

The costume contest was one of the highlights of the event! Susie's dog Rudy came as a Jedi. The competition was stiff and Rudy was not the winner but was a great sport about wearing the costume.




Costume Contest Winner!

The History - Kribbit's Kritters


I am proud to say this is my second year on Team Kribbit's Kritters for Lollypop Farm's Barktober Fest. I've been walking in Barktober Fest since about 1998. I can remember being in 6th grade with my best friend Emily and walking our dogs Abbey and Mia at Frontier Field. Back then we each raised about $150. We would go door to door asking for donations. Its amazing how 13 years later I'm still walking in Barktober Fest. Mia is a little too old to walk with me now but shes doing great for her age!

We need your help! Last year our donations broke records, can we do it again? Donate: http://lollypop.kintera.org/barktoberfest/ashley
