Build a fence -- help a pony club friend in need


Dear Pony Club Families,

My longtime friend and USPC fellow officer, Sue Lavenz, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. In preparing for the changes in her life, she is reducing her herd of horses. Because of that, they will no longer need to lease the additional 30 acres from their neighbors.

When I asked what I could do to help her, she did not want a benefit. She wanted a fence.

After they no longer lease the 30 acres, they will need a fence to run along their property line to keep their horses on their property.

This is where you come in. If you know some people that can help us get Sue’s fence done, can you please spare a few hours to help out? I looked the weather report, Saturday is sunny but Sunday is rainy so I think we should try and do the fence this Saturday, November 1. Sue’s address is 9465 Norris Lake Rd NW, Elk River, MN.

Can’t dig a fence? Then could you help with bringing food for the crew? Lending us post hole diggers or tools?
  
Let’s plan to start at around 8 am – join us when you can make it. If you are coming and are helping in some way, let me know so we can organize the troops.

Thank you,
Beth Whillock
