Carrieactivities

This is my first time using the post...hope I do it correctly! We have an annual pet show each year. We are an assistant living facility. I put it in our local paper to let the community know that we are looking for pets, send out emails to residents' family and friends, and hang signs around the building and also in the community (local vets, library, etc...) We have an RSVP and all animals must have proper documents in order to enter. It is Free to enter! We have different categories: most talented, cutest, ugliest, biggest, smallest, etc... We vote by sound-- clapping, whistling, stomping, etc... We make certificate for each category! We also make different kinds of homemade treats to give the pets and then we put them in little gift bags. This year we were lucky and a local VET and pet store is donating prizes, but this is the first year we have ever had "real" prizes. The community, residents, and staff LOVE this event! If you have any other questions please let me know...give it time, but as soon as you do one it will quickly become an annual event!
