Schaefer Relents; Agrees To Offer Free Puppy Saturday

Recognizing the stiff competition from other Run Camp parties, Jen Helen Schaefer Friday reversed her "no free puppies" rule and agreed to give a lab pup to the first person to leave her Pink Puffer Party.

"I don't want to be sitting there at 3, 4 in the afternoon wondering when these people are going to leave," said Schaefer, "so the incentive was a natural. I doubt that Puffers have won many of the free puppies given out so far."

Not helping her own cause, Schaefer laid down the traditional, ham, asparagus, onion combinations in her quiche recipes and then topped it off with pumpkin muffins, a mixed fruit salad and an assortment of accoutrements for Bloody Mary's, assigning Chief Eagle Foot to bring the Apple Bake Cake.

Doors open 10:30ish Saturday morning and the "get the heck out of here" puppy is expected to be gone by 2.
