We've Been Flocking Busy!

Wow, have we been flocking busy since our last blog post! Our flamingo friends have travelled far and wide through Monroe County generating exposure for AWSOM and stirring up enthusiasm for the opening of the AWSOM Animal Shelter at the old SPCA site on Godfrey Ridge Road. After the rains cleared in Cresco at Weiler Brush, our birds bolted for town and decided to check out the current housing situation with the help of our animal-loving friends at Wilkins and Associates at 304 Park Avenue. Our flamingos were seeking housing advice in the Poconos, especially considering the closure of the SPCA shelter building. After getting valuable housing advice and a generous donation, the birds were next sighted in Bartonsville at Barton Heights Veterinary Hospital where the were thoroughly vetted and caught much needed rest. The staff of Barton Heights are all animal crazy and look forward to the day the shelter doors open. Dr Jeremy Wentz has been interested in helping AWSOM since its inception and has agreed to serve on AWSOM's Veterinary Advisory Committee.
