We are still beaming about our big 🐾Walk for Animals🐾 event that took place over the weekend. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made this year’s event one to remember! The rain held off, so many of our friends (furry and human) showed up, Meteorologist Alex Wasilenko from Local 22 and Local 44 News (mychamplainvalley.com) kept the party going, and the dog contests were a real hit! Thanks to everyone‘s unwavering support, we not only met our $80,000 goal, we exceeded it — raising a record-breaking amount of $90,151.72 for the shelter animals at CVHS!
