Happy Birthday, Sarah Casey!

Happy birthday from the Cle Elum Seven, Sarah!
The next chimpanzee birthday we’ll be celebrating is Jamie’s on October 31st. I wonder what she’ll be getting for her birthday…
Way, way Out of the Box
We had an incredible evening on Friday. The volunteers did a fantastic job and the attendees clearly had a great time bidding.
The Out of the Box auction so far has raised over $100,000
and the online auction continues to go strong – currently at $14,400.
More soon about the event – I just wanted to share the incredible news of the success of the evening and the online auction so far. Thank you, everyone, for your participation, and an especially big thank you to all of the volunteers, donors and sponsors who made the event possible. I am so full of gratitude for everyone’s generosity. Wow.
Felicity Day 6
This month’s Felicity Day (the 6th in a series) is from Lue Clifford, Felicity grandmother.
As you know if you’ve been following the blog for a while, for her birthday this year, Felicity Wood asked her loved ones to donate to the sanctuary in honor of her birthday. And they did -we’ve been happily celebrating Felicity day’s since May and donations raised went to our Anniversary Fundraising. Thank you Lue and thank you Felicity for helping to support the care of the Cle Elum Seven!
Happy Felicity Day Six from Jamie, Negra, Jody, Missy, Annie, Foxie and Burrito.
Here’s handsome Burrito to say thanks:
