| OHCC LIVING | NOVEMBER 2022 | 25
The Pet Lovers Club Annual Meeting will be Sat., Nov. 5 in the Lamia
Room from 9:30 am to noon. Open to all. We invite you to participate
in two important decisions and need a quorum of members for the
votes.
We'll be voting on the election of officers for the two-year term
2023-2024, and which animal charities to donate excess funds for the
holidays.
Membership dues are $6 for one person and $10 for two or more.
By paying now, those memberships extend through 2023. Checks
may be placed in PLC file at front desk.
This is our second year of "Presents for Pets."
The Helen Woodward Animal Center pairs year-round with Meals
on Wheels to provide "Animeals" - specifically packaged food for pets
of Meals on Wheels clients.
The Pet Lovers Club has a free separate event once a year for those
clients to allow them to give holiday presents to their pets. Last year
MoW said they had always wanted to provide this service for their
pet owners and didn't know how to do it. Our "Pet Presents" come
solely from the OHCC Pet Lovers Club and they brought great joy to
the clients. Meals on Wheels provides us with a wish list from their
Animeals clients. We put items we collect in gift bags for MoW staff
to match with clients' wish lists. Checks made out to PLC are used to
buy larger items and services those pet parents cannot afford.
Ellen will have sent out the wish lists around Oct. 20. Gifts and
checks may be brought to the meeting or left at Ellen's home.
