2019 Pins for Pets Annual Bowling Fundraiser
Mark your calendar for Saturday, April 27, and plan to be a part of the Washburn County Area Humane Society's annual “Pins for Pets” bowling fundraiser at Northwoods Lanes and Lounge in Spooner, Wisconsin. Plans are being made for this event and sign up sheets for the 3 shifts of bowling along with more information on registration fee and shift times will be coming out as soon as possible. But, for now, remember the date and plan to help out the WCAHS animal shelter with your participation. There is no age limit or skill level, just a day of fun. 
COMMITTEE MEMBERS WANTED The most effective animals shelters have a strong, enthusiastic, involved volunteer group. As this new year begins, those interested in being a part of WCAHS have an opportunity to help in a variety of ways, but right now Committee Members are wanted, especially with Fundraising and also with a Buildings and Grounds group. So many people have knowledge, time, and talent that could be so beneficial to the shelter. It would not be a demanding, time restrictive position to be in, just a helpful one. To briefly explain, fundraising would not only be putting ideas together, but helping to coordinate the event and helping with it. Several of the fundraisers are well established but new ideas are always welcome. Fundraising is an necessary means of supporting the continued operation of the animal shelter. Building and grounds would be helping with upkeep of both the building and the outdoor area, landscaping assistance, and possibly helping design/build the catio which is a project not completed at the time the building was opened, plus seeing other ideas which may be beneficial. If you would like to be a part of a committee, please call 715-635-4720 or you may email wcahumanesociety@gmail.com You will be added to the list and then notified of a meeting time and place. Thank you.

Many people have been asking about our needs so we thought we would create an Amazon Wish List.

There is an address on file with the list when you check out. THANK YOU to all of you for always being so supportive. Click on the Amazon wish list logo above to go to our wish list. |
