COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT

HAPPENING: Barkathon 2008 is May 18th at Wompatuck

March 27, 2008, 05:17 PM EDT


A walk will be held on Sunday May 18, 2008, from 9 a.m. to noon, at Wompatuck State Park to benefit the Scituate Animal Shelter.

The walk begins and ends in the parking lot outside the Visitors Center Common room at the Wampatuck State Park entrance off Union St. in Hingham.

To help, get one or more sponsors, collect a donation of any amount and bring your dog, real or imagined, to Wompatuck State Park. Take one of several trails through the park and meet back in the parking lot for prizes, refreshments and fun.

Your company can help by making a donation in any amount, by making a donation goods or services that can be given out as prizes during the Barkathon or by helping in the care of the animals at the Animal Shelter. Your Company information will be posted during the event on their Wall of Fame.

The shelter serves the towns of Scituate, Cohasset, Hingham, Hull and Norwell on an as needed basis. It is a non-profit, tax exempt organization dedicated to the welfare of companion animals, whose mission is to rescue abandoned, homeless animals and give them proper care, love, and attention. They are a no-kill shelter.

The organizer of the walk is William Hall, a sophomore at Hingham High School, who is an avid animal lover. His dog, a two-year-old terrier mix named Princes Leia, was adopted at the shelter, and he has a pet sitting business that he has operated for several years in his spare time. With the help of Family and Friends, he hopes to make Barkathon 2007 even more successful than last year.
