We have been extremely busy and I have fallen down on the job of posting some of the pictures that were taken on the day of the 5K fundraiser. It was a beautiful day for this event - not too hot and not too cold with clear, sunny, blue skies. We had a great turn out and a lot of fun.
A family in our area kindly brought their son's service dog "Keeper" to share in our event and we thank them for their support. It was great to have them with us!

We had a great time at the 5K and hope to do it again next year (if we can get our volunteer staff back -hint, hint ;) ). It was the perfect day and we hope to get a total from 4Paws at the end of this month and post it. We extend our heartiest thank you to all the participant, volunteers, police officers, and local businesses that made it possible to host this event and even more - made it a success. There are not words enough to thank all of you for your kindness and generosity in helping us help Kennan to obtain his service dog. We thank you all again.
