Christmas 2007

Our volunteers did a remarkable job giving of their time and talents for homeless animals during the holiday season. And some people donated to the homeless pets in our rescue to give them a great Christmas. We wanted to thank both our volunteers and our donors by sharing a pictorial memorialization of Christmas 2007. Thank you!

During the holiday season, we held an adoption event in South Fredericksburg. We had 3 fund-raisers: an eBay auction, wrapping gifts at a Barnes & Noble store in the Richmond area, and pet photos with Santa at South Fredericksburg PetsMart. We can't thank our donors by name because for the most part, they are anonymous. So we have to just give you a general thank you, but our volunteers we can name! Pet Harbor and the homeless dogs and cats we serve would like to thank the following holiday season volunteers (alphabetical order):

Adoption event - Alison, Alycia, Amy P, Brandi, Brittany, Debbie, Kristy, Matt, Michelle, Monica, & Sarah
Gift wrapping - Heather, Jennifer P
Santa photos - Alycia, Amy W, Brandi, Brittany, Crystal, Debbie, Jasmine, Jeff, Kristy, Matt, and Sonja

As a special treat, Pet Harbor alumni Phoenix (formerly Chip) and Gryffindor (formerly Griffin) wrote a Christmas carol we would like to share with you. We're sure they had help from their parents, but what good Siberian likes to share credit?
