Just a reminder about important fall fundraisers coming up for two Delaware shelters:
* Sunday, Oct. 1: The Delaware Humane Association's Walk for the Animals at Banning Park in Wilmington, rain or shine. (Let's hope for shine.) Registration is at 10:30 a.m.; the 1-mile walk at 11:30. Advance registration ($15) must be in by Tuesday, Sept. 26; $25 the day of the event. The humane association asks that all participants raise at least $50 in pledges. (I'm walking in this one, and ask that anyone interested in adding to my pledges -- for a really good cause -- go to my fundraising page at www.firstgiving.com/jillfredel I need to get it to $100 -- please help.) To register yourself or a team, go to www.dehumane.org or call Debby at 571-8172, ext. 301
