Are you looking for a way to contribute to TBAR? We are looking for item donations (think: garage sale items), event volunteers, and buyers to come by our booth on Saturday!
True Blue Animal Rescue will once again be at the Brazos Valley Driving & Riding Club Horsemen’s Market Day! It always takes place the third Saturday in August (Tas Free Day!), and this year that falls on Saturday, August 15, 2015 from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Brazos County Expo – East Pavilion. The address is 5827 Leonard Road in Bryan, Texas and it is just East of Highway 47.
We will not have any animals with us, but we will have a table full of goodies we will be selling to raise funds for animal care! The entire 60,000 square foot facility will be full of people buying, selling, and trading all equine-related items. Last year the event saw 150 booths sold, with vendors selling everything from jewelry, pillows, clothing, saddles, tack, trailers. The event also has some vendors doing demonstrations, such as blackmithing and clipper sharpening/repair. When you get to the event you can ask at the Registration table to see the list of vendors and what they are selling.
Admission and parking is FREE! There is a concession stand run by the Expo, but you are welcome to bring in your own snacks. Bleachers are available for sitting. The Pavilion is a non-smoking facility, and attendees should be prepared that there is no air conditioning (although the large ceiling fans keep it comfortable). The floor inside is packed clay. Bring cash to ensure you can purchase from all of the vendors!
Horse-related items are the most appropriate donations for this event. The items can be anything, from tack to t-shirts. We appreciate all items, and if they are not sold that day we will store them for our next event.
If you are looking for a volunteer opportunity for just the day, or even a longer-term commitment to us, we are always looking for great people to join us!
