LCHS Walk-a-thon a Success!
Our annual Tail Waggin' Walk a Thon was held on October 18th, and we had a great turnout! Participants raised over $7000 for the animals at the shelter.
The top fundraiser was Jenna Wade and her bulldog Tonka, who raised $802! The second highest fundraiser was Brycen Worden, who raised $636 and Maureen Dodd, a volunteer dog walker at the shelter and the 3rd highest fundraiser, who collected $419! Thank you to these three people, as well as everybody else who took the time to come out and help raise money for the shelter animals.
Thanks to our wonderful volunteers, many of our shelter dogs got the chance to take a nice long walk through the woods during the walk a thon as well, all while sporting their eye catching "Adopt Me" vests. A lot of people got to meet our adoption dogs and hopefully they spread the word to their friends about how great they all are! A huge thank you to Gale Dillon for making the vests for the dogs.
Several generous community groups and businesses were an integral part of this events success. We are very grateful for the support of: Niagara Parks Commission, Greg Frewin Theatre, 340 Gate B&B, Dodd's Greenhouses Ltd, NOTL Golf Club, The Watering Can, Starbucks, The Ice Dogs, Walmart, Fabricland, Calhouns, Ricochet Water, Victoria Fireworks, Tim Hortons, Prancing Paws Pet Sitting, Niagara Regional Police, PetSmart, Ryan's Pet Food, Kirby Bowe, Niagara PetWell, The Pizza Company, Lori Love and 105.7, as well as numerous volunteers who donated their time to help out with this event. This event could not happen without the help of all of you.
We are already starting to plan next year's Walk a Thon, and it will be happening on Saturday, October 16th, 2010. Thank you again to everybody who participated in 2009, and we hope to see you again next year. We are hoping to make next year's Tail Waggin Walk a Thon even bigger and better!
