Evaluation NewsPlease visit our Testing Procedure page for details of our next evaluations. Vet ChecksWe have re-formatted the way the yearly vet checks are done. We will NOT be doing any vet checks at Town & Country Vet Clinic. During the testing dates, members will be able to schedule their animals' vet checks. If you are unable to attend the set testing dates, you will have to have the vet checks done at cost at your personal veterinarian (with instructions from the group on cultures). All group members are now required to pay for their own cultures on their animals. Dr. Costello will still acquire the samples for you at the yearly vet checks, but you will be asked for a check for the lab fees. If your animal is due for its yearly exam or a recertification,contact Lori Baker to set up an appointment time. Non Animal MembersPlease remember to turn in your Delta renewal packets to Katie when you are due for renewal. If you send them to Delta on your own, you MUST give Katie a copy for your file. Calendars!Our 2009 Calendar is available now! They are wonderful this year.
If you would like to purchase one, please contact Katie at 330-534-2001 or email us.
Our Calendars have become very popular and people start asking about them
earlier and earlier every year! Uniforms:If you are interested in ordering sweatshirts, jackets, tote bags or extra polos, contact Catherine Thomas Special Volunteer Hours:Please remember to contact Anthony Russo with any special volunteer hours you have during each month. Please turn them in by the end of the month that you accumulated those hours. You need only report special hours (hours that you are doing anything other than visiting at a nursing home or hospital). Also, if one person from each facility would please pick up the cards and send the Tony each month, your hours can be tabulated correctly! Thanks for the help! Library:Katie and Cheryl have started a library. If you are interested in borrowing any of these books, call or email Katie.
