I had been invited to the opening of a friend's art exhibition in the Bahamas being held in aid of the research. I met Susan Sargent and her fiancé Barrie Farrington when they were guests at Abu camp and we really hit it off. Susan is a very talented artist and the work that was for sale was amazing, capturing the wild. The opening was a huge success as was the exhibition with raised over £2500 for the research. This money ensured the release of another elephant, the oldest bull at Abu Camp, Benny who was released the following July.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="33%" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=147 src="images/bahamas-1.jpg" width=206></td> <td width="33%" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=147 src="images/bahamas-2.jpg" width=206></td> <td width="34%" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=147 src="images/bahamas-3.jpg" width=206></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" align="middle">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" align="middle"><em>Example paintings for sale at the exhibition</em> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> <td align="middle">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=289 src="images/bahamas-4.jpg" width=220 align=top></td> <td colspan="2" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=289 src="images/bahamas-5.jpg" width=393></td> </tr> </table> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My thanks go to Susan Sargent, Barrie Farrington, Lesley Spencer, Katherine Solomon and Sarah Scott</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>And the sponsors of the evening:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Atlanta Hotel, Nassau, Bahamas <li>Garrett 'Triger' Finlayson, Burns House, Bahamas <li>Andrew &amp; Borothea, Aitken Imagine &amp; Frame Art, Nassau, Bahamas</li> </ul> <p><strong>Donations for the silent auction were made by:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Elephant Back Safaris, Botswana <li>Randall Moore <li>Bahamas Ferries</li> </ul> <p>Jim &amp; Julie Black, Sip Sip Restaurant, Harbour Island, Bahamas</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Arthur Court of Arthur Court Designs, inc. <a href="http://www.arthurcourt.com/" target="_blank">www.arthurcourt.com.</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <table width="80%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="53%" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=147 src="images/bahamas-6.jpg" width=206></td> <td width="47%" align="middle"><IMG class=ImgBdr height=147 src="images/bahamas-7.jpg" width=206></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="middle"><em>Barrie, Kate, and Susan</em></td> <td align="middle"><em>Barrie, Lady Turnquest, Susan, Sir Orville, Kate</em></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> </table><!-- InstanceEndEditable --></td> <td width="8"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="8" height="1" /></td> <td class="RightPatch">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="CrvBgBtm"><img src="images/Patch_Left_CrvB.gif" width="13" height="13" align="right" /></td> <td><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="230" height="1" /></td> <td> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="5"><img src="images/Btm_Crv1.gif" width="5" height="13" /></td> <td class="MidBtm"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="13" /></td> <td width="5"><img src="images/Btm_Crv2.gif" width="5" height="13" /></td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width="8"><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="8" height="1" /></td> <td class="CrvBgBtm"><img src="images/Patch_Right_CrvB.gif" width="13" height="13" /></td> </tr> </table> </body> <!-- InstanceEnd --></html>
