Small & Medium T Shirts

We have been pleasantly surprised about the popularity of our first HSYC Dog Walk and 5K Fun Run event. So much that we are now out of small and medium size t-shirts. If we generate enough requests, we may print more after the event. If you would like a small or medium shirt, please let us know during registration tomorrow or email debbiekiggans@gmail.com. Thanks for your understanding.

Additional Information

The HSYC is a NO-KILL shelter and has been saving abandoned animals for over 35 years. We are dedicated to giving abandoned animals a “second chance” by caring for them until their new families adopt them. Last year, the HSYC placed 534 cats and dogs in loving homes. A new shelter will provide a better environment to care for our approximately 125 cats and 50 dogs. It will have an improved air ventilation system, modern dog cages, a dog exercise area, a cattery, upgraded laundry facilities, dedicated adoption rooms and a larger facility to accept more abandoned animals. Building renovations will cost approximately $200,000.
