| 2011 Colorado State Fair Jr. Livestock Sale | |
|
Well, this is the big one—an election year and you know what that means—EVERYONE will want to attend the JUNIOR LIVESTOCK SALE AT THE COLORADO STATE FAIR ON TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 2011. So, use our new registration and payment system and sign up right now. Please, forward tis invitation to friends and colleagues. We want to raise a lot of money to spend at the sale. We will meet at DEL FRISCO’S DOUBLE EAGLE STEAK HOUSE IN GREENWOOD VILLAGE AT 11:00 for a light lunch and then board our buses for Pueblo at 12:15. (Livestock sale begins at 3:35, buses leave for the return to Denver at 6:00, 6:30, and 7:00.) Enjoy good food, good music, great companionship, and great fun—and help some very worthy youths! You will also get to spend some quality time with prominent businessmen and women as well as a few political leaders. FirstBank has joined us as a sponsor this year and is waiving their credit card fees. This means that you can make the $500 contribution online using your credit card. We still accept checks, but many of you wanted to pay with a credit card. The money will go into an eligible 501c3, the Colorado State Fair Express, and then onto the kids. Many of you asked for a receipt from a charitable entity and this year we can provide one. (That way you will not have to call to ask for one.) Coors has graciously agreed to donate hats for all new Rustlers again this year. If you have never attended before, let us know on the registration form and provide your hat size. (There is a table converting inches to hat size on the registration site.) New Rustlers will also receive a vintage Rockmount Ranch Wear western shirt courtesy of Larry A. Mizel and M.D.C. Holdings/Richmond American Homes—just select your size on the form. We are using the same shirts as last year because they are so gorgeous, and they have become our trademark. Everyone knows you are a Denver Rustler when they see you in your shirt. For those who have attended before, but would like a new hat and/or shirt this year, you’ll find the opportunity to purchase them—along with beautiful Denver Rustlers belt buckles—during the registration process. Please reserve your spots now by going to www.DenverRustlers.org and following the link to the online registration form! We really want to see you, but will accept your money even if you cannot attend. If you cannot attend, but would still like to contribute, just visit the registration form and select “Donation Only” or send a check payable to Colorado State Fair Express to the address below. We are keeping last years schedule so that all of us old cowboys and cowgirls can get home at a reasonable time. The Fair is trying some new things to speed up the sale. We are also having our contest (the game is still a secret) outside the Events Center, right next to the red carpet welcome, with great photo ops for those of you who think you are real cowboys or cowgirls. Since its inception, the Denver Rustlers have raised over one million dollars for the Champion Junior Livestock Sale, and supported some of Colorado’s finest youth as they showcase their livestock to earn money for their college education. The Denver Rustlers also support the Kids Café, so you can help some great kids and have a GREAT TIME. We’re looking forward to seeing you and your friends who want to become Denver Rustlers on August 30st! Sincerely, Larry A. Mizel, Tim Schultz, Dick Robinson, Frances Koncilja & Gary Levine |
