Paws For Cancer 2007
SC
Governor - Mark Sanford will kick off Paws
for Cancer Event.
Paws for Cancer to benefit The American Cancer Society
The 8th Annual Paws for Cancer Race will
be held at the Odell Weeks Recreation Center on Saturday, May 5th 2007
starting at 8:00 am. This is a 1 mile Dog Walk to pay tribute and
promote awareness to those affected by cancer, including pets. Registration fee
is $15 per dog. All proceeds
benefit The American Cancer Society.
In some
way cancer has or will touch all of us within our lifetime. By taking part in Paws for Cancer, we as a community, have the
opportunity to honor loved ones and help raise funds to continue the battle against cancer.
We are expecting
a larger crowd this years since we are being honored by SC Governor – Mark Sanford - who
will kick off our race with opening remarks and will help us celebrate the people (and pets) who have fallen victims
to this terrible disease.

Paws For Cancer, May 6, 2006
Aiken Pet Sitters sponsored three clients in the 2006 edition of Paws For
Cancer; Howie, Baby Bear, and Squirt. Paws For Cancer is a canine walk-a-thon
fundraiser for the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life, and is organized by Dr. Holly Woltz of Veterinary Services
in Aiken.
It was a fantastic event with lots of great dogs - and people! Photographers
from the Aiken Standard and Augusta Chronicle were taking pictures. I found
this one on the Chronicle's web page spotted.augusta.com. I wish Squirt and Joe had been here for the photo op too!

It was a fantastic experience! I learned a lot about excellence in professional pet sitting
