[Mi-abs] Postponed: Kalamazoo Dog Daze of Summer Picnic

[Robert Earl Parsons]

Good Morning Fellow Michiganders

I know, you were excited beyond belief right? The idea of getting your advocacy on with the newest chapter addition to the affiliate. It was all planned out: great food, great messages, and great people on a sunny afternoon educating people on our organization and the respect that should be shown to our members and their furry companions. Unfortunately, mother nature did not see it that way. I regret to inform you all that the Kalamazoo Dog Daze of Summer picnic is officially postponed to a later date that will be disclosed shortly. With Saturday calling for rain throughout the day, it would not be wise to attend a dog park that very well may be empty and to allow such delicious food to be caught in a shower. No worries, we will reschedule this event shortly and still be able to engage our community, and most of all, we would like you all to support us doing so. If you were planning to attend this event, please feel free to contact me regarding the rescheduled date or stay tuned to this list serve. Also, feel free to check out our thriving Facebook page: NFB of Kalamazoo, in order to receive the latest updates on our work in Kalamazoo and Portage. I hope all of you have a wonderful week and weekend.

Blessings
