About the Yonkers Animal Shelter:

The current shelter was built 50 years ago to act as a short-term holding facility for lost dogs and cats. It is a cramped, depressing facility that was not built for the animals’ comfort or health, as adoption was not the goal.
A new, modern facility is critically needed to house the constant flow of abandoned and homeless pets that arrive, and to help showcase them for adoption to potential families. We’re more than halfway there — with over $2 million having already been raised. We need your help to reach the final goal.

CAUSE FOR PAWS... Poker Run and BBQ

Darlene, a staff member at Yonkers Animal Shelter, put this fundraiser together to benefit the shelter. If you know anyone who rides a motorcycle, plays poker, or loves dogs, please pass this along! (Sorry for the poor graphic; time is of the essence as this is next week).

The event takes place on Sunday, August 9th, and registration is from 11:00am till 3:00pm, at Toolbox Tattooz at 32 Yonkers Avenue in Yonkers, NY. There is a phone number below for info. Tix prices seem reasonable, and it looks like a fun day.

I think the basic gist of this fundraiser is to ride your bike to various pick-up points, get your poker card while there, and eventually land somewhere and play the hand you get dealt. There will be prizes, food, entertainment, and 100% of the funds raised goes to the Yonkers Animal Shelter, which honestly needs funds.

So, if you can be there, or pass this around, please do. It's being put together by a dedicated staff person who, I've heard, has personally rescued many of the dogs at the shelter and makes sure they are looked after.
