On your
mark…Get ready…Get set…GO!
It’s
a Race for their Lives, and you can be part of the winning team! Furry
Friends Network’s (FFN) Race for their
Lives will be held Saturday, September 22, 2007, at Gifford
Pinchot State Park Conewago Day Use Area and includes
a 5K run and 2-mile fun walk for individuals and teams.
FFN’s
Race for their Lives is an event for anyone interested in a little healthy
competition, with or without their canine best friend. Humans and
their neutered and vaccinated canine best friends are welcome! Registration
begins @ 8:00 a.m. and Race @ 9:00 a.m. Registration fee is $25.00 but
waived if participant raises pledges in the amount of $100.00. There
will be food,
fun and prizes – for top fund raisers, race and walk team winners,
individual race and walk winners by age categories, door prizes – plus
a race packet filled with goodies and a T-shirt for all participants.
Pledges will be collected
on the day of the race.
FFN’s
Race for their Lives raises awareness of the plight of homeless and unwanted
animals – and raises desperately
needed funds for spay/neuter surgeries and general veterinary care
for animals in need. Your support means
more care for more animals.
Why should
you join the race? Because of animals like Clay and
Jordan. Clay and Jordan have been in the FFN foster program for more than
two years, each
patiently waiting for that special family to adopt them. Matching
the unique personalities of various animals in need with the characteristics
of an appropriate
adoptive home can be a difficult task. Even so, each animal brought
under the care of FFN is guaranteed a lifetime commitment for a safe
and happy
life. And, as with the more than 1,800 happy endings made possible
by FFN and its volunteers, Clay and Jordan continue to look forward
to their own “forever” loving
homes!
Your support
of FFN’s Race for their Lives will make a
significant difference in the lives of animals like Clay and Jordan
and will help fund spay/neuter
surgeries to break the cycle of homeless cat colonies in our area.
A local nonprofit, all-volunteer, all-breed animal rescue organization
founded in
2001, FFN is a 501(c)3 charitable organization depending on individual
and corporate contributions to accomplish our mission – to
save lives, one animal at a time.
