How Do You Follow THAT Weekend? With Another Great One!
Wow, that was a great weekend, wasn't it? From the Pet Expo to the Super Bowl to the great temperatures, it was hard to top. But at HAWS, we'll give it a shot!
The annual Friends of HAWS Have a Heart Bake Sale is this Friday and Saturday, February 11 – 12 in the lobby of the Waukesha State Bank at 100 Bank St., downtown Waukesha, during regular banking hours (9am-5pm Friday, 9am-Noon Saturday). Pick up sweet treats for your valentine – person or pet – and join the Friends in support of HAWS. Get all the “goods” on the Friends webpage.
HAWS’ Mobile Adoption Center is bringing “happy tails” into the community with 2 events this weekend. We start with HAWS Night at the Waukesha Chancery on Friday, 2/11 - we'll be there during dinner to collect donations and sell raffle tickets, but the REAL fun begins at 10pm, with Karaoke, "Bark"-cardi mixers and "Meow"-stery shots. Then, after we take Saturday to recover, we'll be at Petlicious Dog Bakery & Pet Spa for the Dog Wash for HAWS on Sunday, 2/13. Details are on the Mobile Adoptions webpage.
Don't forget, we're in the thick of Fill the Forester February - a “drive” challenge made to HAWS by Subaru City of Milwaukee. Supply donations made to HAWS during the month will be placed in the SUV parked outside the shelter at 701 Northview Road, Waukesha. Donors are encouraged to have their “foto” taken to show their support of “Fill the Forester February” and help HAWS track the donation-drive progress. HAWS hopes to Fill the Forester four or five times over! Here's a current HAWS supply Wish List, or call 262-542-8851.
By the way - Spay Day 2011 is coming up quickly - February 22. Everyone can join in support of Spay Day with “Sponsor-A-Spay” donations to HAWS, by purchasing limited edition Spay Day 2011 t-shirts at the shelter, or by entering the HSUS Spay Day Online Photo Contest. Get involved through the SNIP webpage or by calling HAWS at 262-542-8851.
