CowParade La Jolla sponsors cancelled an auction and charity dinner scheduled for Saturday, July 11 at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, citing a lack of ticket sales. But CowParade spokesman Michael Kinsman says the organization continues selling the life-size, hand-painted fiberglass cows in an effort to raise funds for Children’s Hospital and the San Diego Zoo. “The cows are on display at Liberty Station,” Kinsman said. The herd – about 40 cows – grazes around Point Loma’s Naval Training Center (NTC) at Rosecrans Street and Womble Road, Kinsman said. “We’re selling the cows right now – we’ve sold half already,” Kinsman said. “We are taking bids from people and trying to move [the cows].” Prospective bidders can view the herd throughout the day and night, Kinsman said, and then call him with their choice. “I have a list, and I can tell people what’s available,” Kinsman said. “I hope to have them all delivered to people by the end of the month.” Kinsman said he has sold 18 of 40 cows. For more information, or available cattle, call Michael Kinsman of CowParade La Jolla, (619) 296-0605, ext. 243.
