As many of you know we do have a dog drop planned for?Saturday July 11, 2009.? We would like to thank all of the families that have agreed to foster a dog off this upcoming load, and look forward to meeting all of the new dogs.? A dog drop is always an exciting time for us, as it is a culmination of several weeks of planning, all coming together.? It signifies an end to the planning phase, and the endless nights of dog selections and foster home recruiting, and scheduling of appointments.? However, more importantly is marks the beginning for the new arrivals to start their journeys home.? Our foster families are the key to making that journey a successful one.? ? We are excited to welcome all of our new pups and meet them all for the first time!? Especially in the warmer weather!? However, as of right now we have 10 dogs coming in and only 8 foster homes.? We still need two homes.? WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!? We have some families that haven't had a break in months and understandbly need one!? Fostering is the biggest key element in making this organization a success, and we appreciate the effort and dedication our foster homes put into this organization and the dogs in it's care.??? ? If anyone can step up and take a foster kid, we really need your help!? Please contact Bev Creamer at brcreamer1212 at comcast.net?? as soon as possible if you can take a dog off this load!? If you have never fostered before, and have thought about giving it a try, there is no better time to do so!!??If you would like to foster for the first time, please click on this link????http://www.gpaindy.org/fosterhome.html?? and fill out the foster home app as soon as possible! ? Another email will be sent out regarding the drop and expected time of arrival on Friday, once the hauler has left Daytona, and they can give us an estimated time of arrival, so watch for that.? ? See you all on Saturday July 11, 2009!! ? On Behalf of the Board, ? Michelle Carter ? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: Hi everyone, I really, really hate to pester you again with an email asking for volunteers, but we are at the Marion County Fair this Saturday, 7/25, from 11am - 4pm, and so far, we only have one couple who have volunteered! We will be located inside a building (with sheep, but still in a building!) in case it rains. I would love to have enough volunteers / greyhounds to do just 2 hour shifts. Please email me if you are available for a couple of hours. Click on the link below for more information about the event. And while you're there, you will notice that we are having a very busy summer of special events! Please check out the other special event listings, and if you're availabe, email the host. That way I won't have to send out these pesky emails! There will be a couple more special events added to the list this weekend. Thanks!
