The April MYN monthly meeting on Wednesday April 22 will have a little different twist. We’re organizing a much-needed service project to support the local Halter Project. Julie Atwood started the Halter Project, a nationally recognized organization in 2013 and has been awarded 3 FEMA awards for her work with large and small animals during and after natural disasters. Whether or not you have a pet, knowing about animal disaster preparedness and safety is a key part of your emergency plan, especially during evacuations.
Julie has supported Oakmont’s MYN and attended Oakmont events on numerous occasions. As we know, grassroots organizations such as the Halter Project require a huge amount of work. Julie reached out to us for help in putting together some of her education and outreach materials. While we are having fun putting together materials, we’ll learn more about our pet protection during emergencies. MYN encourages getting to know your neighbors, and what a perfect way to get to know each other. Bring your favorite joke to help break the ice!
Please join us as we support Julie and the Halter Project and have some good ole Oakmont fun.
Wednesday April 22 at the East Rec Center at 2:00 PM.
