April 11, 2009: Easter Extravaganza

This Easter’s ‘egg’ hunt at the Township 7 winery in Langley was a resounding success! We had a great group of volunteers come out to help, and a phenomenal number of kids tracking down tokens to exchange for Easter goodie bags. Here are some pictures from this year’s event.

A big Thank You to all our volunteers

The week of April 19-25, 2009, is National Volunteer Week. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful volunteers who have donated their time and abilities to help out SARS BC. There are so many ways that people contribute to our organization: fostering animals, feedings and cleanings at the free run, transporting critters, assisting at various fundraisers, and so much more. The success of the Small Animal Rescue Society is due entirely to our volunteers. As a 100% volunteer-run charity, we simply could not exist without everyone who takes time out of their lives to help small animals.

It is impossible to thank everyone throughout the year because of the amazing amount of assistance – but the help is appreciated, and we are incredibly grateful for your continuing support. Once again, thank you so very much for all that you do!
