Cunning Jenny Clarke, President of APAA, is launching a competition for the best dog and cat photograph to adorn their APAA Totes. “We will have a hard choice I know. But!” Yes? “We will have fabulous Carlos Filipe, a famous animal photographer judging the entries.” The Association for Protection of Animals Algarve will be launching their new tote-bags ‘Dog & Cat Totes’ at their ‘Pop-Up’ Shops and events, alongside afpop’s BLiP. If you would like your pet to be considered, to front the ‘tote’ please send your photographs to Jackie.apaaportugal@gmail.com.
To help reduce the production costs for the bags, each entry will cost €5 and you can send as many entries as you wish. Payment can be made by the following.
Bank transfer to: IBAN PT50 0045 7130 4000 7746 5293 6 by Multibanco: NIB 0045 7130 40007746529 36 PayPal: apaadonations@gmail.com cash (with your name clearly on the envelope) at one of our shops or events. Please state which method of payment you have used when sending your photographs.
“Good luck!” Jenny grins. “It will be a real contest! We will initially have at least 25 bags produced, but then will certainly order more once these have been sold.” Photos and your details must be sent and payment made by Sunday 15 September. Got it!
Jenny along with ‘Pop-Up’-Shop-woman-in-chief, Anita are busy getting the seasonal ball rolling. Markers at the ready.
