Friends of BCAS - Weekly Email 9/8/11

Below is the contents of the weekly Adoptions & Newsletter email sent out on 9/8/11.

Hello, fellow Friends of BCAS volunteers!

Please spare a moment to read the following announcements:

PET EXPO: Volunteers, we'll be set up at the 6th Annual Burlington County Pet Expo (by the library main branch on Oct. 1st). We will not be bringing shelter pets out this time, but we'd love for you to come with your own animals and show people just how great adopted/rescued pets can be :) Our fellow volunteer Barbara ( barbaramoosathome@verizon.net ) is organizing our table at the Pet Expo, so let her know if you can come!

POSTING/PHOTOGRAPHY ASSISTANTS: We're looking for people to help our volunteer posters by handling the animals so they can be photographed. Our volunteer posters work diligently every week to make sure ALL the shelter's adoptable animals are listed online. Our posters are usually at the shelter on Monday and Thursday evenings, and on Saturdays. We need Yellow Dog Walkers more than anything, so if you're interested in helping out or have questions, please email Jenn at jennak87@yahoo.com.

CAT UPDATE: The volunteer cat program is still under suspension, as distemper is even still being found here and there in the shelter. Let's just keep our fingers crossed for our feline friends.

VOTE FOR OUR SHELTER: The Animal Rescue Site is giving away thousands of dollars in grants to shelters with the highest votes here: http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/clickToGive/shelterchallenge.faces?siteId=3 - Help us have a chance to win the grand prize of a $5000.00 grant by clicking the link, searching for Burlington County Animal Shelter, and voting for us! You can vote once every day until the contest ends on Sept. 18th.
