A SUCCESSFUL “PINS FOR PETS” BOWLING FUNDRAISER FOR THE WASHBURN COUNTY AREA HUMANE SOCIETY

The 10^th Annual “Pins for Pets” Bowling Fundraiser was held on Saturday, March 1, at the Northwoods Lanes and Lounge, located in Spooner. The total amount of money brought in that day for this local animal shelter was $3,875 thanks to the caring generosity of all who participated in any way, whether as a bowler, someone who donated money or brought in donation sheet money, donated a prize, bought a raffle ticket, brought in a donation from the shelter’s “Wish List”, contributed to the snack table, or was a patron in the lounge.  

From the sight of smiles on faces, sounds of laughter, excited looks on faces during the prize drawings, and the depleted snack/dessert tables, it sure indicated that everyone had a good time, enjoyed good food, and left with a content feeling knowing they had blessed the WCAHS animal shelter with their generosity.
