HELPING JEN AND LILLIPUT FARM
This is the website for Dog Day of Summer, a fund-raising event for Lilliput Farm in Tyaskin, MD. Early Sunday morning, May 30, the barn burned down. A ventilation fan left on for the comfort of the animals inside overheated. No horses were inside, but several other animals were trapped and died.
The insurance isn’t covering the full cost of rebuilding the barn, much less the equipment, workshop, and supplies that were inside.
Jen is one of those people who is always there for the rest of the community. She is forever taking in unwanted, abandoned, or orphaned farm animals. Forget the phrase ‘well cared for.’ The horses and other animals in her care are downright spoiled.
Dog Day of Summer is a fund-raiser to help Jen get her life back to something that resembles normal as soon as possible. With the enthusiastic help of Steve Frolich and his crew at Tails N Tubs Self-Service Dog Wash, 810 Beaglin Park Dr. in Salisbury, we are planning a sponsored dog walk, dog wash-a-thon, contests, raffle, portrait photography, vendors, demonstrations of agility and obedience, appearance by the K-9 police, and a lot of other events.
Please join us on Sunday August 1 for this event. The walk starts at 10 AM, with activities continuing until 4 PM. Check this site for updates, a list of activities, a list of sponsors, downloads of the sponsor sheet, and other news.
