CITY GOLF TOURNAMENT!
Thanks to our good friends at Beer Church, Whisker City will
be the beneficiary of a golf tournament on August 16th. Sign
up and bring your friends for a good time and a good cause
as we raise money for our shelter. The golf tournament will
be held on Sunday, August 16th at the Nile Golf Club in Mountlake
Terrace. The 4-person scramble will have a 1:30 shotgun start.
Cost is just $95.00 and includes greens fee, power cart, dinner,
tee prizes and raffle ticket. Space is limited, so to register
online, visit www.beerchurch.com and
look for “Upcoming Events” on their home page.
The golf tournament is sponsored by Jersey’s Great Food
and Spirts in Shoreline. For more information, call 206-235-4698.
CAT CORNER
This is Barbri, who has been at Whisker City for about four months. He was
surrendered by his owners to another local shelter where overcrowding had become
a serious problem, so Whisker City took him in.
This handsome fella is 11 years old. He is a large brown tabby male that is
healthy, neutered, microchipped and up to date on all his shots. Barbri is
very affecionate and would make a good lap cat. He has very good litter box
habits and loves to be petted. Barbri does well with people ages 13 & up
but doesn't get along with dogs. He seems to tolerate other cats but would
flourish as an only pet. If you'd like to find out more about Barbri, call
Whisker City at 206-542-0947 Tuesday-Saturday from 9am-5pm.
VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR
The 2nd annual Cat-a-lyst Award was handed out at Whisker City’s
Sacred Cat Ball fundraiser in April. This year’s winner
was Jan Nelson, who took on the role of volunteer coordinator
in 2008. Jan has come to the rescue on numerous occasions for
Whisker City. In addition to coordinating 30 volunteers, Jan
has personally worked fundraisers, generated donations, created
signage, secured workers during construction of our new shelter
and attends our weekly staff meetings. Whisker City wouldn’t
be the same without her, so thank you again Jan Nelson!
END OF THE SUMMER CONCERT!
At the Sacred Cat Ball in April, attendees were treated to a
rousing performance by Shelly and the Curves. They were also
given the opportunity to purchase a ticket to the End of the
Summer Concert, which will be held on Sunday, September 13th
at Whisker City in Shoreline. We’ve created room for more
people to attend, so you too are invited! Cost is $50.00 and
includes food, drink and live music from the band. For more information,
call April at 206-542-9617.
