The barbeque battle rages on and Rally Across America is cookin’!
People continue to roll in to our event to see what the buzz is about. Washington, D.C. has been a stellar stop on our tour. Generous contributions by the public, both fiscal and physical, made it possible. T-shirt and collar / wristband sales were excellent. Our pet rescue stories continue to grow in popularity. A substantial number of applications were filled out to adopt the rescued pets at our event. It’s a great feeling to help find these animals a new home. On top of that, the virtual walk logged just over twelve hours. The combination resulted in over $1000 raised for our local ambassadors!
Melissa’s training demonstrations continue to dazzle. Oh, and did I mention Viola? This little bundle of joy was more popular than ever. She draws people to our table by the hundreds and continues to be one of the hottest additions to the tour.
We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. People came for the barbeque and stayed to rally. Our nation’s capitol was a wonderful place to campaign for pet rescue. The sights were beautiful and the people were amazing. Join us as we rally on!
