DECEMBER ARRIVAL 2018

Evesham, NJ- The caravan will arrive on Sunday, December 16th for the 101st monthly trip,
bringing back over 200 dogs and some cats from Blackshear, Georgia to start their new lives in
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, or New York. This event is open to anyone who loves dogs and are
willing to lend a hand.
Anyone willing to help will need to arrive a little earlier to get a parking space and will be able to
see the caravans pull into the event. This is a once in a lifetime experience while helping dogs
and meeting others that share the same interest.
As this event is very special to the volunteers, the community, and most importantly the many
dogs getting a second chance at a new and healthy life, this trip marks Animal Aid’s 101st trip of
dedicating their time to helping and loving all animals of all different breeds and sizes.
