THE 2ND ANNUAL AUTISM RALLY

First of all, I would like to thank everyone that helped or donated to this awesome rally. We could not ask for a better day with the weather and the wonderful people that stopped by to come see this fun event. It was 90 degrees and windy but the sun shined bright all day long.

Here are some pics:

This wonderful artist here made these beautiful bags with Autism symbols on them. They were absolutely beautiful.

These ladies were sitting and enjoying their hot dogs and enjoying the fun.

This is where they sold the T-shirts, bracelets, chocolate, candy, and books about Autism. Plus the sheet in the background that the kids had a chance to draw on with fabric markers.

These pictures below are from the sensory stations that people had the chance to participate in. They had a ticket, which was called "Passport to Autism Awareness" and they get a hole punched into their cards to show that they completed a station.




This was the water station! Everyone had a lot of fun at this station.

This was the swing, chair, and sand station.



This was the balls and tubes stations.



Plus we also had prizes to give out when each individual completed the sensory stations.



We also had a Auction Basket Raffle.












This shows all the baskets that we had. We had over 30 baskets for the auction. There were 3 total baskets from the wonder people from Etsy. Thank you guys so much.




















We did have some fun with the baskets being that it was sssoooo windy outside. It was a huge job for Abby and Jen to make sure that these baskets didn't fall on the ground. They did an awesome job. Plus Emily sneaking in to put her tickets in for the basket raffle, lol.

I am setting up my table with Abby helping me out. We had to tape things down because of the wind.



Here are my Autism Ribbons that I made with the help of Jen and Abby. I greatly appreciate you guys' help. We made over 300 ribbons together.



Here are the Autism Puzzle Piece Soy Candle Tarts that I made. There were over 70 packages of the tarts in different scents.



Here are the Autism Puzzle Piece soaps I made. I had over 40 of them made with different soap bases and scents.



Here I am sitting pretty behind my table.


I would also like to thank all those Etsians that sent promos to be handed out. They were devoured in no time flat. I did add some of the samples to the raffle baskets to give extra exposure to you all. People raved about them and absolutely loved them .



Also a huge thanks to all those who helped and the staff that put this awesome rally together. Without you this awesome event would never happened. You know who you are.

Second Annual Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally

Dear concerned citizen and business owner,

I am part of a committee organizing a local fundraiser to raise funds for Olean area families affected by Autism. This committee is made up of parents that have a child with Autism and professionals that work to make a difference in the lives of those affected by Autism.

As you may have seen in the news, the latest CDC research shows that 1 in 150 children are now diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and a staggering 1 in 98 boys. Our rural area has not escaped these statistics. Unfortunately, we have limited access to educational and treatment resources that are available in larger cities.

We still believe that we can make a difference. We are organizing the Second Annual Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally. This event will be held on April 25th from 1-4 PM at Jamestown Community College- Olean. This exciting event will include educational materials about Autism, Autism Awareness materials for purchase, a basket raffle, food and beverages, and children’s entertainment including a “Passport to Autism Awareness!” All proceeds raised from this fun and family oriented event will benefit our local efforts to support families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders. Proceeds from our last Autism Rally helped to establish the Olean Area Autism Resource Library which houses educational books and videos available to parents and professionals.

What can you do to help? We are looking for donations of food, gift certificates, and products to put in our baskets for the Basket Raffle. Cash donations will also be gratefully accepted. Any help of any kind will help to make a difference in the life of a child affected by Autism. All donations are tax-deductible, and all major sponsors will be recognized on our Autism Rally t-shirts. Checks can be made out to “Mental Health Association of Cattaraugus County-Autism Rally” and sent to 502 N. Union St. Olean, NY 14760.

Our theme this year is “Family, Community, and Schools: An integrated partnership for serving children on the Autism Spectrum”. We look forward to partnering with you this year to benefit a great cause.



Sincerely,


Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally Committee Members

Karen O’Dell, Dodi McIntyre, Jodi Mallery

Abigail Abdo, Christie Chesebro, Mary Jermann

Two Small Elegant Flowers

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23313541

These flowers would make a great addition anything that you have in mind and they come in a set. They would make great embellishments to your scrapbook, hats, scarfs, curtains, headbands, you name it. They are beautifully crocheted in 100% cotton yarn and in tea rose for that beautiful spring/summer look.

I purposely left the extra string so you could have the choice if you want them left on there the way they are, the outside string tucked in to the middle, or all strings tucked in with the excess cut completely off. Please let me know in the note to seller how you want them to look.

These flowers can be custom ordered too. So if you need more than two please notify me. At that point I will let you know the cost to how many you need and the time frame to when they would be finished. If you order more than 10 they will be at wholesale price.
