6/24/14: Called Dr. McAllister to see if there was anything
I could help with in way of the “Doggie Dash.”
I was asked to contact the mosquito control in Valley County and see if
they would/could spray for bugs the night before the race. I contacted the County department and was
told to call the department head, “Stone Tihista.” I contacted Ms. Tihista who assured me she
would have her crew fog for mosquitoes the night before the race on July 18th,
free of charge! I then contacted Dr.
McAllister and told her what is now in place.
I then contacted the company who made the posters for the race to see if
they could make some yard signs also. I
was told they do not have a machine big enough to make yard signs. The lady emailed me the logo they had made that
is used on the posters. I was told we
could do whatever we wanted to do with the logo.
6/30/14: I contacted
Dr. McAllister to see if there was anything I could do to help her and/or learn
about animal immunizations. I was told
to come over to her clinic and I could shadow her throughout the day. I asked many questions related to what may be
needed in writing a policy and procedure for bringing an animal into a
healthcare facility. I heard what she
had to say from a DVM perspective. I
enjoyed the day and learned a lot.
7/1/14: Reviewed
information done related to volunteer service.
7/10/14: Met with Dr.
McAllister to plan exact route as set my Civic Center for race. Obtained tables for information at race, and
finalized all necessary items; refreshments, door prizes, and bibs are ready
for the race on 7/19/14. We will meet
again on 7/16 to discuss the event again.
