HSEC Gearing up for Inaugural Paddles for Paws Pickleball Tournament Saturday at 17 Springs; Volunteers Needed

FROM THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF ELMORECOUNTY

We want to thank all the wonderful people who donated dog and cat food the past few weeks.  We put out a plea for both as our stocks were critically low and you met our need. On behalf of our dogs and cats, and our staff, we thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts.

THIS Saturday, 7 Oct ’2, 8 am – 5 pm, is our first ever “Paddles for Paws Pickleball Tournament!” Paddles for Paws will take place at 17 Springs Millbrook, 2021 Hwy 14 Millbrook, AL 36054 to benefit our Shelter! We have over 60 players registered to play so off to a fantastic start (sorry, registration is now closed). However, we are still soliciting for door prizes and definitely need Volunteers to help us make sure we have a successful day. Volunteers will work in various areas and not necessarily all day so feel free to let us know when you are able to help out – just email hsecpaddlesforpaws@gmail.com

Also this Saturday, 7 Oct, 9 am – 2 pm we will be participating with the Millbrook Police Department 13th annual Cops and Kids Day at the Village Green Park. They will have plenty of fun, food, games, displays and K-9 demonstrations at no cost. Our staff will have a few pups there to meet all the children and potentially find new and loving homes!

We will hopefully have the tickets this week as you will want to get in on this fantastic fundraiser by the Wharf Casual Seafood Wetumpka whereby you will be able to buy a Red Bag Shrimp Boil (shrimp, corn, potatoes & sausage) for pick up on Saturday, 28 October at the Wharf Wetumpka location from 11 am – 3 pm. Our Shelter will receive a portion of the ticket sales and we think this is just a scrumptious idea all the way around.  Look for more info on our Facebook page for when we have the tickets in hand.
