   Reading To Dogs!

   On Whisker Wednesday's, we talk with Anita's Stevens Swan Humane Society Executive Director Trisha Weller Barone! Along with Mariann Munson from First Source Federal Credit Union talking about the resounding success from June 11ths Ribbon Cutting for a brand-new event! Trisha and Mariann researched this new project for 2 years. It involved children from local schools coming to the Shelter with a parent to spend time reading to dogs! Mariann found this being done at a shelter in Missouri and thought it would be a great fit for Steven’s Swan. Anita, also saw the potential and they did 2 years of leg work, with Mariann spearheading the campaign, to finally make it a reality. First Source has been an excellent sponsor and the event exceeded expectations. For the summer on Saturday mornings at 11am, Anita’s will have this program available to elementary students. Accompanied with a parent, they can come to tge shelter and read to dogs. It is a tremendous success because it relaxes, calms the dogs down and children are able to spend more time reading. I remember being in 3rd grade absolutely horrified when picked to read out loud to the class. Now, children will have more confidence while providing such a kind service to the dogs!

   Fundraising Events- Dr. Sheridan Mish

   On an All-New Whisker Wednesday's, we meet with Anita's Stevens Swan Humane Society Executive Director Trisha Weller Barone to discuss the fun events upcoming in June. A ball of energy, I am not sure if she actually sleeps or is operated by AI. It's good that I can be a nice distraction who is excellent at occupying time! Dr. Sheridan A. Mish joins the show and is a real love over animals. He works as a Chiropractor and has several locations throughout central New York. Tomorrow, June 7th LifePower Chiropractic, PLLC - Utica office is having an open house from 1pm to 4pm, with proceeds going to Steven's Swan. They are on 2200 Genesee Street and this is a great experience for the entire family. Anita's will have puppies and kittens ready to adopt, Dr. Misch is being brave and spending time in a dunk tank! If he adjusted, you and it's payback time, send him into the water! There will also be face painting and a raffle drawing at the end. Raffle tickets will also be sold for Steven's Swan big November drawing with a chance to win $100,000 dollars. It will be a wonderful day to bring out the family and support a phenomenal cause. Steven's Swan needs our help, anyone who can donate, please do because every dollar counts. https://stevens-swan.kindful.com/?campaign=1239893 (https://stevens-swan.kindful.com/?campaign=1239893) We are also looking for volunteers, at least until Trisha can clone herself!
