2012 Adopter Reunion

Join the Greater Charlotte SPCA volunteers, adopters, friends, families AND their furry family members for a fun afternoon filled with dogs, delicious picnic food, and fabulous games and prizes. Please RSVP to info@charlottespca.org if you are planning to attend and would like food.

Help us to celebrate all of the wonderful adoptions over the past years and thank the fantastic volunteers who make it all happen. Our foster families are so excited about the opportunity to reconnect with the dogs they fostered and fell in love with!

DATE: May 20, 2012 TIME: 2-5pm LOCATION: Stumptown Park 120 S. Trade St., Matthews, NC

We will also have many of our current foster dogs in attendance, so if you are looking for another furry family member, please stop by and meet the adoptable dogs!

To help raise funds for the rescue, we will be selling picnic lunches, rescue magnets, and dog toys as well as raffling off all sorts of cool dog-related stuff, including a chance to have your dog DNA tested to find out exactly what's in the mix!

Activities/Contests/Games Include: • Costume Contest - Those of you who can't resist dressing up your pets for Halloween (you know who you are!) might as well get one more use out of those costumes. Prizes will be awarded for best costume and for least enthusiastic costume wearer. • Best Trick - if your dog loves to entertain, give him a chance to shine by showing off his favorite trick. • Owner/Dog look-alike contest • Kissing Booth - Staffed by enthusiastic puppies shamelessly selling their affections to pay their vet bills! • Training Seminar • Canine First Aid Seminar • Agility Equipment - Provided by Zoom Room. If you have ever wondered if your dog would enjoy agility training, now your chanced to find out! • Microchipping Clinic - Your GCSPCA dog is microchipped. Make sure your other furry family members are microchipped so there is no doubt about them getting home to you if they are ever lost. Microchip cost is $20, which includes lifetime registration. We welcome all volunteers, former adopters, friends and rescue enthusiasts to join - all well-behaved, socialized dogs welcome!
