The Stephen Memorial Animal Shelter in Oskaloosa will hold a Pet Adopt-A-Thon Saturday (5/1) from 10am until 3pm at Penn Central Mall.  Shelter Director Terry Gott says there will be exhibits from pet-related businesses and animal shelters from Ottumwa and Knoxville….along with a bake sale.

“All proceeds from all sales will go to the shelter.  It’s going to be a fun time.  We’re having a silent auction also, so come on up.  Mahaska Drug donated a bunch of items for our silent auction.  There’s going to be a lot of items there; it’s going to be a good time. The last time that we had one of these, we estimated we had over 300 people come through.  Get the kids out, come on out and see some dogs and cats and maybe you’ll find the next family member that wants to go home with you.”

Again, the Pet Adopt-A-Thon is Saturday from 10 until 3 at Penn Central Mall in Oskaloosa.
