Thank You!

Thank you to those of you who contributed in any way for making Paper Arts A Thon a huge success!

So many people were involved in this and I hope I will be able to remember them all.

Without a place to hold this event it would not have been possible and so 'Thank You' to the Nova Scotia Community College for opening your doors to us. Not only did you open them but you welcomed us with open arms....providing maintenance staff and offering everything you had available to enable us to do our job better.

Thank you to the Middleton Lions Club for the loan of the extra tables and for the cheque of $150. Your support was greatly appreciated.

Thank you to the businesses ( a Thank you card will go out to each of those listed below) for giving so generously. You contributed to our silent auction table, door prizes, food and raffle items. You were a big part of the success of our event.

Thank you to the individuals who pulled from your resources and generously donated food, materials for the Make N Take Tables, door prizes, silent auction items and made our event a better one because of your generosity and support. We could not have done this without you!

Thank you to Sandra Flinn who worked so very hard in raising over $2300. in pledges (we are still in shock over this big number). Your hardwork and dedication is greatly appreciated.

Thank you to Vanessa Burns-Trivett for speaking on behalf of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Your words had a positive impact on all of those who attended. We are glad we can make a difference for CBCF.

Thank you to Paulette Sarsfield for providing the Girls Only! Weekend to our Silent Auction Table...this item earned the highest bid...with a bid of $850.00!

Thank you to Amber Tosh for being such a great 'Celebrity Guest'. You were such a great sport to play this part. It was truly a pleasure meeting you. Your presence made PAAT 2008 that much better.

Thank you to all of the Stampers who made cards for the 'Card Idea Album'. The cards not only provided inspiration to those making cards at PAAT but they will now go to the 'Cards For Our Troops' program.

Thank you to all of the participants at PAAT 2008 for making 'Cards For Our Troops'. Thank you to Greenwood MFRC for providing the prize to one of those card makers. (This was one of the draws!)

Thank you to those who prepared and donated the Make N Takes...by ALL accounts they were a HUGE success!

Thank you to Paul Illsley, Amy Ross Massage Therapy, Bea Sturney, Scrappin' Great Deals for the Raffle Items. These Raffle Items were a great addition to our event.

Thank you to Jean Lunnon for bringing her talents, as a Paper Tole Artist, to PAAT and giving the participants an opportunity to learn this hobby.

Thank you to Dee Dee Blood, Charlie Brown and Arnie Ross in helping with meal preparation and clean up. We really couldn't have done this all with out you! We also had two young 'behind the scenes' helpers, you know who you are! You did a great job girls! We really appreciate your hard work.

THANK YOU to the participants who attended PAAT 2008. This event could NOT have taken place without you! Your enthusiasm, dedication and SPIRIT are truly the heart of Paper Arts A Thon...because of you $11,205.44 was raised for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.


A special Thank You to Maddy Mason, because you are one of us (a Paper Artist) and because of your story... we were inspired by you to make a difference, to take our Paper Hobbies and to 'Change The World One Piece of Paper at a Time'. Maddy, you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Thank You,
Myleta Ross
