what raffle and what do you need?
If someone can come get it I'm sure we can donate something or a lot of things lol

Washington Feather Fanciers has a raffle of donated items evey show. They set up a big table & display the items with numbers and corresponding paper bags.
You then buy tickets, I think $1 each, and brose the items.
if you see something you like, you then drop a ticket into that item's bag.
After the awards, the 4-H kids hold up each item, and another child draws out 1 ticket and the winner is announced.
Items need not be chicken related.
Last show I won some beautiful embroideried kitchen towels that are way too pretty to use except for a holiday maybe...and there is always hatching & breeding books, gardening items, trees & flower starts, birds, rabbits, stuff for guys like tools & gloves, you know, good stuff.
Cookie jars, coffee mugs, anything cute, salt & pepper shakers, lamps, napkin holders, feeders, water fonts, and someone made some nice bird cages last year too.
The proceeds go to WFF so they can rent the show arena, and pay the judges.

BTW;;Anyone that can, bring chairs for yourselves, they have very few.
We will have a table & WA4-HPoultryMom will set it up with Cloverleaf Farms's table there. So try to bring a folding lightweight chair & put your name & address on it.

What time should we get there? I can make some jewelry to donate. I can bring some chairs (I have a big, comfy one to survive all the kids soccer games in - itreclines like a dentist chair! Nice and comfy with a pillow and a blanket. I'd be glad to share it. It has 1 problem, no cup holder!
 
I heard Rory @ the Monroe Farm Supply say today that he'll be having 164 different kinds of breeds of foul this year.
Can you belive it 164? I had some pix of last year and he said he had 190+.

These are the coolest looking birds. I could only imagine what my neighbors would think if I got some, they like to peak through the fence and watch my chickens. One day they'll see all these big fluffy girls and then a rapator out of no where pops out!
I reallyyy hope you bring some eggs to the show

Do you raise ducks in a residential area? I've been so tempted to get a few ducklings but I'm just not sure how they'd do in the city. Curious as to how they do

Just thought I'd ask you since you seem like a duck enthusiast

Thank Goodness everything turned out fine! I did that before, just before DD's birthday party ... left a pan of beans on simmer, then ran into town to pick up balloons. I did not think I was gone long, but when I got home, a fire truck was in my driveway, my fire alarm was blaring, the construction workers from the home being built across the road were trying to get the doors open, smoke was pouring out the kitchen window, and the pan of beans had flames shooting out of it! luckily, that was all that burned! The party started less than 30 minutes later; thankfully it was a nice day, so I moved everything outside.
