Summer Calls For Volunteers

So, it's that time of year when the youth of the world sleep late, daydream about the fun they will have the rest of the summer, and celebrate no school work for two months. Then what? How about devoting some of that time doing something fun and beneficial? Hillsborough County Animal Services is holding volunteer orientation sessions tomorrow at 5:30 p.m. and Saturday, June 28 at 10 a.m. Volunteer duties involve dog walking, bathing, socializing and more. Minimum age requirement is 16 years and parents must accompany minors under 18 to orientation. For more information, see HCAS website. Other places to consider offering your youthful assistance are Humane Society of Tampa Bay, rescue groups and shelters, and your local veterinary clinic.
