RMCSR Picnic, September 8, 2012

Our 2012 Picnic was held on September 8th and was a huge success. Colorado graced us with her beauty and provided a day of sunshine and clear skies. It was wonderful to meet everyone and hear the stories from each adopter about their dog and what a difference it had made in both of their lives. I can’t tell each one of you how much happiness it brings to all of us at Rocky Mountain Collie and Sheltie Rescue to see how these dogs have moved on and become whole again. We saw dogs that came in emaciated and are now at a healthy weight and will run and play, others that came in obese from a poor diet and have now lost the weight, others with emotional baggage that now have been healed all in part to all of you the adopters, many of whom drove long distances to attend.

From California, Mike and Lynne Almeida planned their summer vacation around the picnic. Michele Fricke, our RMCSR volunteer in Kansas City, MO, drove 10 hours one way just to be there and see the dogs that she has helped. Not to mention all of you who took time out of your schedule to come and share the day with us.

We had something for everyone and we are all very grateful that you could attend and help us with our fundraising efforts and we hope that you enjoyed the day sharing your stories and meeting other adopters. We have an incredible group of dedicated volunteers that give of themselves each and everyday and we will be here as long as there is a need.

Plans will be in the works for next year’s picnic so we hope to see you then and again thank you for your generosity.

Respectfully,

Kathy Downey
President of the Board
