FUNDRAISER PROPOSAL
We the members of the organization "Friends of Leash Optional Parks" would hereby like to declare our
intention of having a fund-raiser to help offset the startup costs that will be incurred when our proposed
Paw Park Project commences.
The purpose of this fund-raiser will be to help defray the fencing and other costs involved in opening a Paw
Park in Winter Springs. For any that do not already know, a Paw Park is a park where owners and pets are
welcome together. A Paw Park is not only fenced for the animals safety, but water and cleanup stations are
also provided to keep the park as sanitary, and animal friendly as possible.
It is our intention to raise funds with the help of community volunteers. Our methods of fundraising may
include, but are not limited to, the following activities:
DOG WASHING: Whereby pets are washed for a cash donation
FOOD SALES: By outside vendors or volunteers
AGILITY TRAINING: Whereby owners will pay a fee to run their pet through an obstacle course with a
professional trainer
RAFFLE DRAWINGS: Donated prizes may be raffled off with tickets purchased on site
RESCUE ORGANfZA nONS: Animal rescue organizations may pay a fee to be on site, and available for
adoptions
FRIENDS OF LEASH OPTIONAL PARKS BOOTH: We may have a booth on site to give out
information, and premiums awarded for different levels of donation
It is our hope that with the help of the city, and our volunteers, that we are able to make a Paw Park in
Winter Springs a reality
