This year we have had our 'South Sound Summit Booth' set up at various events. The first was the Mother's Day Best of the Northwest Art and Craft show in Magnuson Park. Peggy, Scottie and I and our pups manned the booth and got a good response. Next we did the King Co. Adoptathon, the Pierce Co. Dogathon, and the Bellevue Festival of the Arts Festival. People are delighted to hear about the work we are doing with the Summit dogs. We hang a sign around the dogs necks, "Hugs & Kisses - $1." which gets a great response. I found one young woman kneeling with the dogs arms on her shoulders, and into a big schmooze. "Hey! That's really going to cost you!" I said, and she laughed and stuffed some money into the donation jar. It's a lot of fun, but more importantly, it's getting the word out about Summit so we can gain greater support in the community.
