Here we are at the Humane Society's Wiggle Waggle Walk at Zwick's Park on October 15th. Lots of participants, lots of dogs and lots of fun! Pictured are President of the Rotary Club of Belleville Peter Malone, Literacy Chair Sharon McConnell, Director Collin Myers and JC Charles D'Armour of the Humane Society and Rotary's contact with the Rotary Rescue Readers program.
Our Club is developing an alliance with The Humane Society's Rescue Readers program, where literacy skills are promoted through organized sessions of school-age children visiting the Shelter and reading to the animals.
Thanks to those Rotarians who donated to this event. Donations are still coming in, but in all, close to $700 was raised and put towards this program. A great first start and we'll be looking to expand for next year!
