20 | Four Seasons Hemet Herald | DECEMBER 2025 | We hope our PAWS members and guests had as much fun as we did at our very first PAWS BBQ held here at Four Seasons on our patio, on Nov. 6. We enjoyed a gathering of 75+ attendees – including some very special canine guests! Along with a classic BBQ meal and guest speakers, our program included our phenomenal Jazz @ Four Band – with good-natured narration by Sandra Garces (PITA). PAWS was proud to be joined by these partners below who exemplify the PAWS Vision of Family (safeguarding the health and welfare of our fur babies at home), Community (creating positive experiences for ALL in Four Seasons) and our Town & Beyond (doing good works in Hemet/San Jacinto and beyond) – and ALWAYS having fun! • A Breed Apart Dog Training (on California Rd.) • Haven Pet Adoption Center & Animal Hospital (San Jacinto) • Technique Unique Pet Services (monthly Pet Care Community Day - & home visits available, too) • Let Them Be Little Feline Rescue (local supporting volunteers in Four Seasons & beyond) PAWS will nurture these partnerships into 2026 and beyond! PAWS welcomes other organizations to join us in our Vision as we continue to evolve, thanks to the support, love, and strength of our amazing Four Seasons residents! Each of the BBQ partners generously contributed to our Raffle Prizes, with awesome gift certificates and gift bags! In addition to these great prizes - PAWS wants to thank all of you who contributed to our "50/50" Grand Prize: 50% of incoming tickets sales awarded to the winning ticket holder AND the other 50% went to Haven Pet Adoption Center (plus donations) for a whopping total of $327 to Haven! We wish we could share all our fantastic photos and videos – but here's a few highlights! We are thankful to ALL our AMAZING PAWS VOLUNTEERS, including our Grill Team: good cooks, good lookers, AND good hearts! While we all enjoyed a day of Love, Fun and Good Food - we are sure that EVERYONE would agree – the highlight of the day was the adoption of Haven's "energetic love bug" WEDNESDAY – one of the stars of our Adoptable Doggy Runway Show! Wednesday has now found her forever home with Jodi Lewis, daughter of resident Cathy Simpson! Happy ending to a joyful day! Questions: Call/text our PAWS Support line at (951) 473-3235. There will not be a meeting in December. Starting in 2026 we meet the second Thursday each month at 2 pm in the Ballroom. See you Jan. 8.
