We Said Goodbye to Summer...With Wet Dogs! by Janet Klingensmith, Pools Committee
We closed the 2019 pool season on Sept. 7 with our annual Soggy Doggie Swim. Twenty-four dogs and their families joined us for one final swim at the Sweetbriar Pool. Thank you to all who participated. In addition to all the wet fun, we raised $325 and 75 pounds of food for the Orange County Humane Society. A special Thank you to the local businesses who contributed to the gift bags distributed to our four-legged athletes: All Fur Pet Grooming, Lakewood Animal Hospital, Locust Grove Veterinary Clinic and Paradocs Animal Hospital.
