Create different areas volunteers can help, discuss how volunteers can help at Tj’s (if at all)

NOTES:

• Great Dane puppy stray is at Muddy Paws
• Any dog in Muddy paws in inpound and RESCUE 55021 needs foster to be able to bring it under RESCUE
• Two dogs, Buddy, and Reese not getting much attention and need to promote more to find them a home!
• Muddy Paws is helping us with fundraising event at their location. This event will include items to be raffled, Muddy Paws stores items and 25% of proceeds will go to RESCUE 55021.
• Current adoptable dogs and RESCUE 55021 residents will be at the event 
• Decided no volunteers will be helping at Tj’s Landing as of now
• Board will continue to change and edit Petfinder bios to best reflect dog/cats personalities to help promote adoptions
• The faster an animal gets adopted the better!

ACTION ITEMS:

• Create brochure/ flyer that showcases pictures, info about fostering, and to add Tj’s Landing to it, this brochure/flyer will also include frequently needed items such as food and cat litter; and how to donate
