After four years, the dream of
a Humane Society building took its first step yesterday toward
reality with the groundbreaking ceremony at its future location on
Lincoln Parkway. One hundred-plus volunteers have been working
tirelessly to raise enough funds to not only build the shelter, but
to ensure its continued operation.
With the help of $200,000 from the Ethel Hoelscher
estate, the donation of land from the Burwell family, $380,000
collected from volunteers through fundraising activities and the
LCHS building trades department helping to build the facility, the project
has been a true community effort.
