BAA BAA SHEEPSKINS DONATES ROCKING HORSE TO
HEART OF THE REDWOODS HORSE RESCUE



Rocking Horse Will Be Raffled Off To Raise Funds for Non-Profit
Eureka, CA, April 12, 2008 — Baa Baa Sheepskins has donated Chips (retail value
$289.95), a brown and white pinto pony rocking horse to Heart of the Redwoods Horse
Rescue. Chips will be raffled off on May 31, 2008. Tickets are $1.00 each and are
available for purchase at Baa Baa Sheepskins. All proceeds will benefit Heart of the
Redwoods Horse Rescue, a 501(c)(3) non profit.
Chips, the rocking horse, has a genuine lambs wool mane and tail, a hardwood base
and he also makes whinnying and galloping noises when his ear is pressed. Any child
will enjoy many new adventures riding on top of this adorable brown and white pinto
pony.
“Heart of the Redwoods Horse Rescue is doing an amazing job caring for the 40 horses
rescued from Myers Flat. We love animals and we wanted to help,” said Baa Baa
Sheepskins owner, Stephanie Lyons. “It was really my daughter, Madeleine’s, idea to
hold the raffle. She’s 7 years old and after we visited the horses at the Fortuna Rodeo
grounds, she was sad for them and wanted to do something for them.”
“We are thrilled that Baa Baa Sheepskins has volunteered to help raise funds for us.
The whole community, businesses and individuals, has really stepped up to help us
meet the challenge we are facing and appreciate everyone’s efforts,” said Sara
Isaacson, a member of the Heart of the Redwoods Horse Rescue Board of Directors.
If you are unable to come by and purchase a raffle ticket, Heart of the Redwoods Horse
Rescue has set up accounts for public donations at Umpqua Bank and, Coast Central
Credit Union. Checks can also be mailed to P.O. Box 226, Cutten, CA 95534.
