It's May already?!
ONLY 5 MORE WEEKS TO GO UNTIL SUMMER (I factored finals week into that equation).
I will continue to post about our 2nd Annual Dog Show Fundraiser until you hate me. But please, SPREAD THE WORD. INVITE ALL YOUR FRIENDS to the event on Facebook. Tell them admission is free, unless they would like to enter their furry companion into the dog show.
If you happened to miss Dr. Mitloehner this past Tuesday, see what he has to say here. He's really a brilliant man. Feel free to contact him about his work!
• PSSD's 2nd ANNUAL DOG SHOW FUNDRAISER is Saturday, May 14 at Arroyo Park from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Bring your family, fur babies and friends to have some fun. We will have raffles including prizes from Temple Coffee Roasters, RIRE clothing, and Tote Tails (AND MORE!). It is free to hang out (and pet puppies), but if you want to register your dog, there is a $10 registration fee. BUT PLEASE COME!
• OFFICER ELECTIONS ARE TUESDAY, MAY 3 from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM in Giedt 1001. PLEASE COME & VOTE. Because the candidates will be running the club next year. They will be planning YOUR events, workshops, etc so your vote matters.
