Woofstock volunteers needed

[October 01, 2012]  Anytime Fitness and the Humane Society of Logan County are working together to bring the community the first-ever Woofstock at Kickapoo Creek Park on Saturday.

This is a furry friends and fitness fair fundraiser to benefit the Humane Society of Logan County. Walk and shop with your pets and purchase items to help support the Humane Society.

There will be hound and human health vendors, face painting and games for kids, a balloon artist, hot dogs, chips and drinks.

There will also be contests and raffle items. Raffle items include a recliner from Jake's Furnishings, a freezer from McEntire's Direct Maytag, a TV from Wal-Mart and many more. You do not have to be present to win.

As always, putting on a successful event means having plenty of people involved helping out. Right now the organization has only about six volunteers coming out on Saturday to help out and could use at least nine more.

Volunteers are needed to do the following: set up and take down, meet and greet, direct the public, sell tickets, and help with games and dog contests

There will be two shifts: 9 a.m.-noon and noon-3 p.m. That way no one will feel obligated to work all day.

To volunteer, contact the Humane Society of Logan County at 737-4042.
