Fun at the WAG 'n Walk

Great fun at the WAG 'n Walk. Gorgeous weather, lots of fun activities and happy guests. Thanks to everyone for coming out - can't wait until next year!

Chick-Fil-A thanks

A hearty thanks to all those who came to Chick-Fil-A for our Dining to Donate night. Finally learned the results - WAG's share of proceeds was $330!! We had a lot of fun - our mascot "Wags" made his first appearance and enjoyed visiting with WAG fan, tall and small.

Our awesome fundraising crew of did a great job of getting receipts donated and making everyone aware we were there. In fact, we were tough to miss - at the door, in the parking lot, on the street, near the drive-thru - we had it all covered!

Spring WAG 'n Walk

Spring is here - Yay!! I was so tired of cold weather. There's nothing like digging and smelling cool Georgia springtime dirt. April and May are busy for WAG. The Petsmart adopt-a-thon weekend is April 30 - May 1. Some great pets will be available for adoption at both the Loganville and Conyers store, so come out and visit! Adoption hours are 11 am - 4 pm both Saturday and Sunday. We'll be tabling at the Loganville Starbucks this month to raise awareness of local pet issues. Hope you'll drop by to say hello. Our biggest news is the upcoming WAG 'n Walk on May 7 at Meridian Park in Loganville. It's gonna be an awesome event! A fun walk around the park lake, vendors with stuff to buy, helpful info on pets, music, food, fun and more! Also, our first Rescue Reunion will be held during the event.

You can choose a flat fee ($10 indiv, $25 family), or help even more homeless pets by fundraising for your walk. The more money you raise, the more stuff you'll get!

Another Year.....

WAG is off and running on the new year. First, we've changed our meeting location. Meetings are now scheduled the 3rd Tuesday of each month at Mi Mexico Mex Grill, 530 Athens Hwy Suite B, Loganville. Look for the restaurant in the strip mall across from the Oasis bowling alley. Dinner is at 6:15, meeting is at 7 p.m. We meet in the back room of the restaurant - come visit and help us make 2011 great!

Thanks to everyone who supported us in 2010. We had a lot of successes, welcomed new volunteers and helped some great people and pets.

In 2010 we provided over 5200 lbs of food to the pet food pantry, rescued more than 120 cats/dogs, and provided subsidized spay/neuter to 129 Walton pets. And we're ready to do it again!
