Executive Summary

The Animal Services Division was approached by First Colony Community Association (FCCA) to see if the City would be interested in being the recipient of a fundraiser being organized by FCCA.  The “Paws for a Cause” dog walk was held the morning of October 10, 2009 preceding the opening of the new dog park, Pawm Springs. The walk was a huge success and included a best trick contest and best costume contest. It was well attended by both two-legged and four-legged walkers alike. The event had several business sponsors from the area.  The event raised $2,600.00 to go towards the care of the animals at the City’s shelter.
