Thank you Brian and Sharon and everyone at Barrel Oak Winery for sponsoring a fund raiser in Mina’s memory to benefit Poplar Spring Animal Sanctuary. I could not have managed this without the kind people at BOW, my friends at the sanctuary, my friends at Masons Keepe where we live, my friend Deb who’s blogged about Mina and took great pictures of my little girl, and all my friends who are going to meet us at BOW and buy wine and celebrate my beloved’s life.
TIME: 2-5 p.m.
DATE: Sunday, December 13, 2009
PLACE: Barrel Oak Winery in Delaplane, Virginia – Directions to the winery
Barrel Oak will donate 10 percent of all sales of Bowhaus Red wine, Bowhaus White wine, and their awesome sangria to Poplar Spring on the above date and time! I’m determined to get as many people there as possible so if you’re in the National Capital Area, PLEASE COME! We’ll have a table set up for cash donations and brochures from the sanctuary and some vegan treats and photos of Mina at BOW and the sanctuary.
Mina protected me and loved me and took care of me for 13 years. I can never repay her for all that she’s given me, so I want to spend the rest of my life doing whatever I can for non-human animals to honor Mina’s life. This is a nice start.

If you absolutely cannot make it to BOW, please donate to the sanctuary directly from their Web site. Please let me know that you’ve donated because I’d like to thank you.

Wow, Sheryl, this is so nice of you and BOW to organize this wonderful fundraiser in memory of Mina! This will be such a huge help for the animals at Poplar Spring, and it’s such a great way to honor Mina. I will be sending out emails, and put it on the website asap, so hopefully we can get tons of people out there. Thanks so much!!
