Bonnie Folz, who is organizing Saturday's search, sent these details:
<<I was able to get a printer to run off the new Vivi flyers in color. Doris, from Lion King Printing in Manhattan is donating 20,000 flyers to us no charge!!!!! Doris tells me her fur-kid went missing for a month and the flyers helped to reunite them. She hopes these will help us to find Vivi.
Bobbi from Bobbi & The Strays has offered for us to keep the flyers at the Vetport so they are readily available for those who can get out and post them up.
The Vetport is located in JFK Airport, Cargo Area C, Building #189. Unfortunately I cannot free up my work schedule for Thursday and Friday so I will work with those folks that are available for the flyer detail from the office via cell phone (bless those who invented it). The focus will be the Dunkin Donuts, coffee shops/deli's in the morning and the different check cashing facilities in the area in the afternoon.
Saturday will be spent flooding as many neighborhoods as possible with the flyers. Phone poles, light poles, bus stops, shopping centers, etc. I'll be pairing up teams for posting up the flyers as it would be easiest to have one person drive and the other post. I'll also need volunteers to hand out flyers to businesses in the area. We will again work with a grid.
If any of you coming has a staple gun or packaging tape dispenser, please bring those items with you. I will have a few available but I'd rather not spend money on a load of staple guns and tape dispensers. I will get out somewhere along the line and pick up clear tape and staples to have on hand. I know there are some folks from out of state faxing the flyers out to the various veterinarians offices and I believe the shelters too. Could someone else possibly get the flyer out to the groom shops and pet supply stores?
I must tell you, from the first email I sent out for our first organized search, the response to all requests for volunteers, from near and far, has been outstanding! All of the kind words and wonderful ideas has been a great help as well. I know I speak for Jil, Paul, Bo and those core people involved, when I say THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH! You are an incredible group of people! Keep the faith! We will find Vivi!>>

Do you have a paypal account where the money can be sent?
I was so overjoyed to hear of VIVI being sighted a few days ago. I have been heartbroken over this. This should never have happened. I e-mailed Delta to tell them I will never use that airline again. I wish all of you the best of luck on Sat. March 4th. I think we will be lucky. I have sent in a donation to use for the search. Let me know if I can do more. I am too far away to join the search, but I will be with all of you in spirit. Today is the first time I have cried joyful tears since she has been missing. From one dog owner to another I hope people would respond if this happened to my dog. Good luck to all you wonderful people. Susan
