The employees of Community Solutions were named the 2003 Group Volunteers
of the Year at the HHHS annual meeting on May 15. This is a new award
category awarded for the first time this year.
Under the supervision of Ralph Lilley, this group has gone above and
beyond all expectations, logging more than 470 total hours in just three
months. The group reported for duty every Saturday, rain or shine. They
arrive early in the morning to bathe animals that have been selected
for events and spend time walking them beforehand to burn off some energy.
They assist at mobile adoption events at Petco and PetsMart. If no event
is scheduled for a particular Saturday, they just come in to walk dogs
and spend time socializing with the animals.
This group is more than willing to do anything asked of them. We are
honored to have them as part of our volunteer family.
