Wow thanks for posting. Not everyone has a chance to volunteer at the shelter on the regular basis but this gives everyone a chance that wants to help out.


Thanks,

Nicole

The PDF was created as a "for position only" PROOF.

However, we obtained a proof of the view from the deck of the house photographed maybe ten days ago, when lakes and ponds in distance still had lots of ice and snow cover.

Volunteer for a day
 

We are still in need of your help. If you can spare a few hours, just for one day (weekday or weekend), that would be a tremendous help to all the fur babies who depend on us humans.

Additional pictures and information on this open house can be found at the shelter's link: http://www.nhhumane.org/events.htm#Designer%20House

I just called and spoke with Nancy and let her know I could volunteer for a few shifts. As it gets closer, we will meet for training and sign up for shifts then. Anything to help the little furbabies out:D

I meant to type that I spoke with Sharon-I am unable to edit my post:(

Sorry.

What is the designer house for? Will someone be living in it eventually? We will be up that way on August 9 - 16 and I think that migh be something to go see, which would also help the humane society.

Good Question???
 

Excellent question KellyG. Let me find the answer to this and I'll post it.

You're visiting the house will most definitely help the fur babies. I encourage you to stop by when you are here. Thanks so much.

Exellent Nicole!!!!! Thank you so much for wanting to help out the fur babies. We all appreciate what you are doing.

(by the way, whenever I have typos or errors in my emails, I try to make the excuse that one of my 4 Shelter fur babies walked across the keyboard.....sometimes it works. :laugh: )

It's For Sale
 

A quick search on the internet revealed this much so far about the Designer Show House. For a cool $1,875,000 it can be yours. It is a buyers market right now isn't it? so I'm confident you could make a lower offer. :laugh:

It's being offered by the Bean Group. Here's the link to their website and directly to the home: http://www.beangroup.com/real_estate...eredith/640424
If you do not want to use the above link, you can search on 2008 designer show house, meredith, NH

I will see if the Shelter has anything to add to this.

I only wish I could go or help, but for what it's worth I only adopt dogs from shelters or rescue groups. I've had three since I got married, here is the latest she was a rescue dog from West Virginia. The most stubborn animal I have ever had the pleasure to love! :)

"Designer Show Houses" are organized that a different designer/decorator will "do" a different room or area of the house. Within guidelines, they will do everything, from top to bottom: furniture, flooring, window treatments, wallpaper/painting, the whole color scheme, literally everything in the room.

To view it will give one ideas for their own home. Many of the furnishings are for sale; your purchases and ticket sales will benefit the non-profit. We assume the designers do it all at their own expense. We understand that the house is for sale, but that is not the point of the show house. It should not be a real estate broker open house. Do not be mislead. It showcases the designers' work.

In past years, home owners have loaned the use of their house for this kind of purpose; there were events to benefit N. H. Music Festival and other non-profits. We remember once, the Pike/Pitou house on the hill top in Gilford. As one wrote, this is the first as a fund raiser to benefit NH Humane Society. As we understand, the volunteers are utilized as guides within the house, to manage the flow of viewers and to answer questions about the rooms/designers, and sort of "security", as if visiting a museum.

Maybe we can encourage uploading a more current panorama photograph of the view, when trees and foliage are more green.
If we are off base, we are not offended if committee ads comments.

She's Beautiful! Thank you for your wish to help, and we realize not everyone can help with this event, but as you said there are many ways to help the Shelter and adoption is certainly #1 on the list.

By the way, your Black Beauty, think she needs a companion.......I know a wonderful place you can go.:D (thought maybe the power of suggestion might work :emb:.)

Poster
 

The Boss... AKA "she who must be obeyed" has been working as a volunteer on this project.

Attached is the official Poster. If you have a local business in the lakes region you can help this project in a big way by putting one of these up for display.
PM me if you'd like a poster for your business. You can also contact the Humane Society directly. 603-524-8236

PS.. She tells me the house is amazing ! ;)

Looks Like Fun!
 

It's for a good cause too!
Thanks for the "official" poster SteveA. I dropped it into the event calendar.

Thanks RG..
 

Tickets are on sale now! Great Cause!

For viewing pleasure, we were able to obtain this COPYRIGHTED proof. with permission to post here.
On the left is swimming pool construction work. In far distance is Belknap/Gunstock mountains.

Wow!
 

I was at the house yesterday, as noted earlier, the Boss (AKA "She who must be obeyed") :) is very involved in the preparation of this event. We had to bring a bunch of material to the house.

Run, don't walk.. to get your tickets to this event. The house blew me away, 5400 Square Feet, amazing 320 degree views, 12 different designers have created a must see house.

Tickets are available all around the Lakes Region and at NHhumane.org, the house opens 7/26. And, it's such a good cause.

PS You guys that read this, don't worry about it being a "girly" event. Wait until you see the Weather Station, Heating and A/C Systems. The builder is very "Green" and some of the stuff I saw at the house was amazing.

I think I'm going to buy an extra powerball ticket for tonights drawing. If I win I could afford the $1.8M they are asking for the house. :rolleye2:
