Those high-flying dogs and their magnificent owners

Hey - if you love dogs and want to support a good cause, these folks would love to have you at their event...just got this in my email today. A chance to check out some high-flyin' dogs and support a good cause...let me or Deanna know if you are interested in photos or a story.

Here's a note of explanation from one of the organizers:

"It is a fundraiser for the Hope Chest Dragon Boat Team here in Buffalo. The Hope Chest consists a group of women who have survived breast cancer and formed a crew to race dragon boats, which is pretty neat in it of itself. "

Anyhow...let us know. Thanks!
