At the Flin Flon Creighton and Area SPCA annual meeting Tuesday night the organization honored two volunteers of the year Val Glynn and Heather Walker Lengyel.

Shelter Manager Carmen Ward reported 102 animals were taken in last year down from 147 in 2015.

President Erica Husberg reported donations almost doubled from 2015 with help from the Twin Motors event and the Fire Department’s Boot Drive as well as their dedicated fundraising team as it costs almost ten thousand dollars a month to keep the shelter.  She notes the posts on Facebook about puppies and kittens to be given away and the number of stray dogs running around.  She says their mission this year is to educate pet owners on the spay and neuter program, promote their low income spay and neuter program and are looking into getting in a mobile spay neuter clinic.

  Husberg thanked the board, staff and community for their continued support.
