Adopt-A-Pet announces spring fundraisers to help with the costs of daily operations of their dog shelter. Mark your calendars and get ready for some fun.
Gardeners can find everything they need for spring planting at the May 9 plant sale. The annual event will be held at Our Community Credit Union at 2948 Olympia Highway North from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Next up is the Memorial Weekend Yard Sale for great bargain hunting. This three day event is held at the shelter and runs Saturday through Monday, May 23-25 from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. each day. Donated items are gladly accepted for both events.
Adopt-A-Pet will also be holding a raffle through June 1. Alderbrook Resort and Spa, our local pet-friendly gem, has kindly donated a night’s stay in the beautiful Canal View room. This is a $500 value during the summer months. Tickets are $3 each and will be available at both the plant and yard sales. Locals can also purchase tickets by stopping in at the shelter from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on any Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday between now and June 1. Not-so-locals can send a check and self-addressed stamped envelope to: Raffle c/o Adopt-A-Pet, 940 E. Jensen Road, Shelton, WA 98584. The lucky winner will be notified on June 2, 2015 and results posted on our Facebook page.
