September Fundraisers

There are a few fundraisers happening during the month of September.  Get out and support them if you can and pass the word on to as many people as possible.
PartyLite Consultant Michelle Bertrand is running a fundraiser during the month of September.  35% of sales will go directly toward the Off Leash Park.  Buyers can choose votives or tea lights and there are ten different scents to choose from including Mango Tangerine and Cherry Blossom.  What a great idea for Christmas!
On Friday September 28 10:00am-5:00pm, Pet Valu in Renfrew has welcomed us in to the store to host a full day of fundraising.  Bring your dog in for nail trimming and basic grooming or treat yourself to some delicious baked goods.  All proceeds will go toward park costs.
On Saturday September 29 the Town of Renfrew Firefighters are hosting a BBQ at Ma-te-Way Park.  Stop by between 11:30am-2:30pm for hamburgers, hot dogs and sausages.
We are so fortunate to have so many individuals and groups helping us bring a park to Renfrew.  These are exciting times!

Donation from K9 Excursion


Jo-anne Caldwell accepts a donation from Jessica Lafond and her son Abel Deroy to be put toward the Renfrew Dog Park.  Jessica, owner of K9 Excursions raised $100.00 through the sales of a single batch of Peanut Butter Biscotti at Bark in the Park in August.
