WASHBURN CO. AREA HUMANE SOCIETY
CHRISTMAS FOR CRITTERS
There will be many animals at the Washburn County Area Humane Society who will be spending the holidays at the shelter, waiting for their forever home. You can help make their Christmas merrier with treats, washable toys, canned cat food, and canned dog food. For more ideas on what you can donate, please see our Wish List on the reverse side or call 715-635-4720. Donations can be dropped off at the shelter at 1400 Cottonwood Avenue in Spooner during regular open hours (noon-5 on Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri, and Sat).
Another way to help is by purchasing a light for our Tree of Lights, using the form below. We will light a light for that special companion that is now a fond memory, for that special pet that “lights up” your life every day or for an animal lover that you wish to honor or remember. The tax-deductible donation may be any amount, and all donations are greatly appreciated.
We invite you to join us at the shelter for the Tree Lighting on December 1st at 6:00 p.m. with refreshments from 5:30-6:30. Come and take a tour and sign up for door prizes.

TREE OF LIGHTS 2016
Washburn County Area Humane Society’s 16th annual “Tree of Lights” event was a huge success! This year the event was held on December 1st at the Spooner Market and Grill to celebrate and honor the 10,000 animals (plus) that have had the opportunity to go through the door of the Shelter since the building opened in 2000.
In addition to complimentary hors d'oeuvres, beverages, there were many chances to win all kinds of great prizes. ...
The Thimbles Quilt Shop group made and donated mitten ornaments that were filled with various prizes including many mittens that held a $100 bill! Gift cards, gift baskets, a hand-made quilt and a handcrafted cribbage table were just a few of the silent auction items plus many other ways and chances to win all kinds of great prizes.
So far between “tree of lights” donations and money received the night of the event, over $6,300 dollars as been raised for WCAHS!
If you did not have the opportunity to join us on Dec. 1st or you have not yet been able to make a donation to light a light in honor or in memory of your special pet(s), you still have plenty of time. We will continue to add your animals name on an ornament that is placed on the tree at the shelter right up until Christmas day. To get a “tree of lights” form, you can call the shelter at 715-635-4720 for one to be mailed to you, you can pick one up at WCAHS or you can find a form on our website www.wcahs.com.
WCAHS appreciates and thanks all who were involved and donated, to make this the greatest “Tree of Lights” event in 16 years!
