Donations by Gail Guirreri-Maslyk

"I do my best to help out as many non-profits as possible. It would be my pleasure to take every request though time simply does not allow. My choices are spread out into different areas of service I feel I can make the most impact. I believe it is best to serve my local community first since these audiences would tend to give the most to the charity for my efforts."

Roanoke Valley Horse Show June, 2009:

2009 Roanoke Valley Horse Show Poster

June was one of Gail's busiest months of the year. She has been show artist for Roanoke Valley Horse Show since 1999. Once the show ads are out and the program gone to press in May Gail turns her attention to the annual 'Prize Poster'. This limited edition sell out poster also sells on t-shirts. New this year will be a canvas tote. All proceeds (except a small pool of start up funds for 2010) from Roanoke Valley Horse Show goes to the Bradley Free Clinic, equine research and other charities and scholarships. June Camper is the show executive. The rest of the horse show is run solely by volunteers. Roanoke Valley Horse Show is the show known for southern hospitality!!!
