Driving Forward HVMI Schedules Golf Outing By Ann Mead Ash

Kyle Robinson, executive director of Handi*Vangelism Ministries International (HVMI), has a lot on his plate. Not too long ago, the ministry purchased the land at 3261 Rothsville Road, Akron, and work to receive approvals to locate camps, retreat centers, and day programs there is underway, with HVMI planning a capital fund campaign to begin in the fall. With all that looming, Robinson is well aware of the importance of maintaining the general budget. “Our golf outing is driving programs that are happening now,” explained Robinson. “Our general

Volunteers may take shelter dogs on field trips as part of the Pennsylvania SPCA Lancaster Center’s Pupventures program. By Dayna M. Reidenouer

Want to make a difference in the life of a dog but cannot commit to full-time ownership? Then you might be a candidate for Pupventures, a program of the Pennsylvania SPCA Lancaster Center. Center volunteers have been taking dogs staying at the shelter, 848 S. Prince St., Lancaster, on adventures in the community. “We have volunteers take the dogs out almost every day,” said site manager Rachel Golub. “We have a list of approved locations for volunteers to take the dogs to as well as general rules for taking the dogs out, such as no greeting other dogs, no going to dog parks, and no

one under 18 is allowed to handle the dog. Most people take the dogs to one of the nature preserves, hiking trails, or parks on our approved location list, but they can opt to go to places like Lowe’s or Splits & Giggles as long as we’ve cleared the dog to go ahead of time.” Volunteers are asked to spend a minimum of two hours at a time on adventures with the dogs. While experienced dog owners are preferred, Golub noted that everyone is welcome to volunteer, as all types of dogs are typically available, ranging from low maintenance to highly rambunctious. “Even if someone is inexperienced with dogs, we should have a dog they can walk,” she said.
