2006 Fall National Adoption Weekend

September 15-17 is the 2006 PetSmart Charities Fall National Adoption Weekend. During last year's event 14,500 otherwise homeless pets were adopted. The event includes giveaways to new adopting families as well as $15 from PetSmart Charities to the Shelter for every pet adopted during the event. Volunteers are needed to work the adoption table on all three days of the event. Normally we are at PetSmart from 2-4pm on Saturday and 12-2pm on Sunday. I would like to see the table open from approximately 12-5p on Friday, September 15, and 10-5p on Saturday, September 16 and 12-5p on Sunday September 17. I would also like to see dogs brought to the store on Saturday and Sunday. Please keep in mind that one or two people can not cover this event. Ideally we should have at least two people covering every hour on Saturday and Sunday to help with the dogs. Please let me know if you are available at all to help with this Adoption Weekend.

Also, you should have received the September schedule. Let me know what days(s) you can do.

Thank you for everything you do. The partnership between the CMC Animal Shelter and PetSmart has proven to be very successful this summer. Let's keep up the good work!!
