Residents are urged to join the hike and raffle this Saturday to help save PAAWS from closure
Residents are being urged to join a hike and raffle this Saturday to raise desperately needed funds for the PAAWS rescue shelter which is on the brink of closure.
The Parham-based facility marks its 20th anniversary this year – but dwindling donations have left it in dire straits.
Organisers hope the Valentine’s-themed event on February 17 will encourage people to show a little love for rescue dogs and cats and raise crucial funds towards the shelter’s running costs.
Proceeds will also benefit the Antigua Spay and Neuter Clinic.
The walk departs at 7.30am from Loose Cannon restaurant on Galleon Beach, before heading up to Shirley Heights, along the Jones Valley Trail and back to Loose Cannon for bacon sandwiches and drinks.
A raffle with a host of prizes including Carlisle Bay day passes, a trip with Blue Harbour Helicopters, a half-day charter with Barracuda Boat Charters, a Lenovo tablet, and a EC$400 voucher for Maia restaurant at South Point will be drawn on the beach at 10am.
The cost to join the guided hike is EC$100. Call 720-3081 or 784-5151 to register or buy raffle tickets. Raffle tickets are EC$10 each and are also available from the Ark Veterinary Clinic in Sir Vivian Richards Street.
