Walk for Animals Recap

The Walk for Animals took place last Saturday, April 30th.  We woke up to less than perfect weather.  It was windy and rainy and it wouldn't be as fun walking the five miles as it would have been in warm and sunny weather but we raised money and collected money from people like you and so it was our obligation to you and the animals. We met up with our friends Tanya and Chris and their dog Cosmo at the Golden Valley Humane Society.  It was Tanya's first walk and Chris and Cosmo walked with us last year.  Tanya is preggo, somewhere around 32 weeks but she made it the whole way.  Cosmo, the English Bulldog also made it the whole way for her first time and bulldogs are not known for their endurance.  The rain deterred about half of the people that normally participate but there were still 5,000 of us that showed up for support.

I ended up raising $240 thanks to all of the following kind peeps:

• Molly and Dave
• Barb 
• Catha 
• Jill
• Ed
• Terri
• Kris and Jim
• Grandpa
• Tammy
• Kristi
• Steffanie 
• Samantha 
• Heather

The preliminary results are in for the total amount the Humane Society has raised and they are about $40,000 short of their $1 million goal.
