On Saturday shoppers enjoyed an opportunity to grab up some wonderful baked goods at the annual Humane Society of Logan County Cookie Sale.

Orders were taken in advance of the sale day and the HSLC had several dozen cookies ready for those who had placed those pre-orders.


In addition, there was a long table of pre-packaged cookies as well as pies, cakes, cupcakes, bread and much more, all reasonably priced and ready to be grabbed up and taken home.

 

For the shoppers who wanted to choose their own assortments cookies were lined up on trays to see and choose what best suited for their needs.
 



In all it was a busy morning that started at 8:30 a.m. and progressed into early afternoon. Volunteers kept an eye on all the selections to make sure the tables were neatly maintained. Some volunteers manned the checkout table, while others yet tended to the pre-order boxes and provided shopping bags for those who made multiple purchases.

At the end of the day the HSLC sold 500 dozen cookies and earned a whopping $4,400.
 

 

The baked goods offered by the HSLC are all donated, so the proceeds went to fund the coming year's operating costs at the HSLC. The center is run with one paid shelter manager and all the rest of the labor is provided by volunteers. Money raised goes to help keep the lights turned on and also to help provide food and care for all the animals at the shelter.

 

 

The HSLC is grateful for any and all donations and on their website, they publish a list of items that are in daily demand. Anyone wishing to buy a "Christmas gift" for the dogs and cats at the shelter can get some really good ideas from that list. The shelter also accepts monetary donations.
