LARRY Reeves, outgoing president of the Humane Society was applauded for two years of strong and successful leadership at a recent brunch in his honor at the Vista Del Lago Country Club. He was lauded for his fund raising abilities, “can do” attitude and his willingness to leave a warm bed to rescue an animal in distress. Grace Kosub will pick up the gavel and apply her considerable talents for the year 2000.
THE new board of directors for the Humane Society made an excellent choice when they appointed Becky Arthur to the Fund Raising Chair. This position is not for the faint of heart since it is the backbone for major funding for maintaining healthy shelter animals, spaying/neutering and promoting successful adoptions. Already well known for her “Walk a Dog” program this little blonde bundle of energy can be observed nearly every day walking happy hounds along the highway.
YOU don’t have to love chili to enjoy the CHILI COOK-OFF taking place on Feb. 11, 12, and 13th. Food of amazing variety will tempt every palate and our bi-lingual golden voiced master of ceremonies, Wayne Palfrey will keep the multi-cultural festivities in full swing. As they said in Lithuania, “Let the fun and games begin.”
