Help WAAAG Raise Funds for 'Kabins 4 K9's"

· From pages 6, 7 of the print edition

Plan to reserve Sunday, September 13th from 1 to 5 p.m. for an afternoon of fun with WAAAG, when the Delaplane Animal Shelter invites everyone from far and wide to help them raise funds for "Kabins 4 K9's."

Located in the beautiful Virginia countryside in Delaplane, Virginia, WAAAG is dedicated to rehabilitating and finding forever homes for dogs and cats from overcrowded local and out-of-state shelters. Founded and operated by military veterans, WAAG is a 501c3 charitable organization.

WAAG needs to raise $25,000 for a new, temperature-controlled K-9 Kabin and Play Yard, and the plans for their fundraiser promise an exciting and fun-filled afternoon. Included in the festivities will be planes that transport rescued dogs; live music by Jerry Irwin, food, wine and cider and fun games for kids of all ages. A raffle will also take place with great prizes and fun things to win.

Animals that are sheltered by WAAAG often need extensive veterinary care before they can be adopted. WAAAG is dedicated to these animals and, although they began as a small facility, they are working to grow so they can help many more animals by bringing them back to good mental and physical health before they find them loving homes.

The WAAAG fundraiser will take place at the ProJet Building at Leesburg Airport, 1001 Sycolin Road, Leesburg. Tickets may be purchased at www.waaag.org. They are $25 per adult with no charge for children eight years of age and under.
