These two fine felines were recently adopted from ELPO, and have moved in with Mr. and Mrs. Film Guy.

Items expected to be on hand include furniture, glassware, dishes, furniture, toys, tools, lawn furniture, bikes, antiques... items are still coming in, so there's no telling what will show up by the time the event kicks off.

Proceeds from the sale go to benefit the pooches and kitties currently residing (on a temporary, pre-adoption basis) at ELPO headquarters at 10101 East Northwest Hwy., in Dallas.

Got time on your hands and want to help out during the event? The organizers are still looking for volunteers to assist in cleaning, organizing and pricing of items prior to putting them up for sale, and for assistance during the sale itself. One need currently existing is for people with strong backs with an aptitude for hauling around furniture on the days of the sale.
