    Bark In The Park Walk-a-thon
     
    First Sunday in June at Greenway Park, on Greenside Avenue, off Springbank Drive, just west of Wharncliffe Road.
      

    This family orientated event attracts people of all ages and backgrounds, and takes place in beautiful Greenway Park where a 5km route has been mapped out for our pledge earners. (For those with older or younger dog there is a shorter walk available.) There are 11 Water Stations positioned along the route to ensure a fresh supply of water for your dog, with most sponsored by our generous veterinarian community. Remember to pick up a special treat for your dog from our sponsor at the Finish Line!

    In addition to the walk itself, participants are invited to visit our event tents which house a wide array of exhibitors from the animal care industry who offer products, services and information. A showcase of entertainment includes pet trick contests, agility and dog training demonstrations, and product giveaways.  There will also be a charity food area, with all proceeds going directly to our animals.

    Mark your calendars for our 24th annual Bark in the Park, June 1, 2008!
    Greenway Park, London
    10am - 2pm
    Great prizes for top pledge earners!

    Spring Into Action Campaign - May
    First week in May

    Each spring during May’s “Be Kind to Animals Week” we look for volunteers to put on their thinking caps and raise funds on behalf of the animals.  The challenge is a creative one.  Participants may prefer the direct approach and ask their friends, relatives or co-workers for monetary support. Campaigning door-to-door not quite right for you?

    ·
    Create a Toonie Pot and set it up in the staff room
    ·  Organizing a "dress- down" day, a BBQ or bake sale
    · 
    Plan a neighbourhood Garage Sale or Book Sale

    · 
    Email everyone in your Address Book

    You will be amazed at how many people you know!  Ideas for fundraising are only limited by your imagination.

     

    Here are 10 ways to Be Kind to Animals:
    1. Speak out for animals
    2. Never tolerate animal cruelty
    3. Adopt a shelter pet
    4. Spay or neuter your pets
    5. Keep pets’ vaccinations current
    6. Identify your pets with tags
    7. Donate to your local animal shelter
    8. Appreciate wildlife
    9. Leave room for habitats
    10. Teach your friends about the importance of being kind to animals

    If you are interested in helping out please call Joanne Tremblay at 519-451-0630 x 222 or email jtremblay@londonhumane.ca
