I received this from my colleague, Linda Reider, from the Michigan Humane Society this morning. My thought is it could be an excellent opportunity to use your ferret knowledge for this exercise. Note the location is southeastern Michigan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ Hello, Disaster-interested colleagues and volunteers: An opportunity has arisen to set up a pet room during an overnight emergency sheltering exercise with the Southeast Michigan Red Cross on Sept. 18 in Southfield. If you would like to volunteer to help with this project, please email me at lreider@michiganhum ane.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Am I going? No. I have events on Sept 6 and Sept 20 here on the west side of the state ...... plus a job ..... plus 45-50 ferrets (I thank God for my wonderful volunteers). I already traveled approximately 2,000 miles this summer participating in MHS Summer Camps in Rochester, Bingham Hills, downtown Detroit and Westland with the ferrets. And some of you remember how much I looooooove kids. There was Dairy Queen at the end of each camp so everything was cool. Take care Dee West Michigan Ferret Connection [Posted in FML 6084]
