Help Support Pawtracks by Buying a Pair of Earrings
“Pawtracks,” the quarterly audio magazine of Guide Dog Users, Inc., takes full advantage of computer technology in its production. Now you can wear a little bit of that technology and help support the most exciting guide-dog-related magazine in the world!
Jenine Stanley has designed earrings featuring actual 8186 Intel computer chips. These black-and-gold earrings are about 1 inch square and are for pierced ears. These earrings are in limited supply! No true “Geek Chick” can be without a pair!
All proceeds from the sales of these earrings go toward "Pawtracks." It costs about $9,000 per year to produce the four issues, each over four hours in length, on cassette tape and compact disc. Earrings cost $50 per pair and come with sterling silver lever-back closures. You may order your pair by contacting Jenine at (614) 766-5524 or via e-mail at [email protected].
