The annual WCHS
Garage Sale,
held in May, raised
$14,014—well
over the goal that
event organizers
set! Thank you to

AREA ARTISTS HELP RAISE MONEY FOR WCHS
This past April some of our area’s most
prominent artists teamed up with two local
businesses and the Wood County Humane
Society (WCHS) to raise money for the
abandoned, abused, and needy animals of
northwest Ohio.
On Friday, April 4, the Artists 4 Animals
exhibit opened at Myles Baker Street Gallery.
Sponsored jointly by the Bowling Green Arts
Council (BGAC) and the WCHS, Artists 4
Animals was a juried gallery show featuring local
artists ranging in age from 5 on up that ran through
the month of April.
Award winners included: Vicki Lee, Best Domestic
Animal, “Dancing Party Cats”; Micah Smith, Best
Wild Animal, “The Original Duck Face”; Gillian
Fruth, first place kindergarten through grade 4,
“Woodland Critters” and second place Madison
Poiry, “Majestic Unicorn”; Kirstyn Harris, high
school, “Frescizard”; and Ernest Guldbeck, adult,
“What’s the Racket.” First place
award winners in each category were
reproduced on note cards that were
available for purchase at the opening
reception and currently are available at
various locations throughout the city of
Bowling Green (including Grounds for
Thought).

opening of the Artists 4 Animals exhibit. Photo by Kelsey Kleine (More photographs from the Artists 4 Animals event can

On Saturday, April 5, Manabigama
Pottery Center hosted a fundraiser
that brought together over a dozen
of the area’s most active and talented
ceramic artists to raise money for
the WCHS and Nature’s Nursery
Center for Wildlife Rehabilitation and
Conservation Education, a non-profit

located in Whitehouse, Ohio, that provides
medical care to injured and orphaned wild
animals and conducts nature education
programs for children and adults.
Each potter donated an original piece of his/
her work for silent auction with 100 percent
of the profits going to the two charities. In
addition, each artist brought other works to
sell; 30 percent of the proceeds from these
additional works benefitted animal welfare in
Lucas and Wood counties.
Both events were enormously successful. In
particular, Potters for Pets generated over
$2200 to share between WCHS and Nature’s
Nursery.

A great big THANK YOU to Terrie Stephens
for donating this kennel cover from Shade’n
Things and to Matt Skivers for helping
install it! Our dogs will now be able to
enjoy more (and improved) shade this summer. We would love to have enough kennel
covers to keep all of our kennel runs cool
and dry for the dogs. If you are interested
in helping us reach this goal of acquiring
three more kennel covers, then you can
send a monetary donation to the shelter
with the memo “Kennel Covers” or kennel
covers can be directly purchased at the
Shade ‘n Things website (at http://www.
shadenthings.com/). Note that we need the
12’ wide size.
Very special “Thank Yous” to:
• Boy Scout Troop 344, Pemberville, OH
and Jared Briscoe for his Eagle Scout
project which included a renovation of
our intake room, allowing us to house
more animals in that room, and for the
design of the room which allows us
to utilize the space more efficiently. In
addition, for doing a major clean-up
of the property with all our overgrown
bushes and trees!
• Downey Plumbing, Heating, and
Cooling LLC for delivery and use of their
dump truck for Jared’s Eagle Project
• Kyle J. Sherman Excavating LLC for
donating 15 tons of stone and the
equipment to move the stone.
• Matt Skivers for donating his time in
operating the equipment (as a side, he
is an employee of Sherman Excavating)
and moving the stone and our shed to
its new location.
• Thanks to everyone who made Wine
& Dine 2014 such a huge success!
We raised over $8,000 of essential
funds for the shelter. Thanks to Jerry
Anderson, who joined us again this
year as the host of our live auction.
Thanks to our sponsors, whose generous
donations make this event possible.
HUGE thanks to Swatch Studios for the
donation of a photo booth. And thanks
to BGSU Catering and Event Services
for a wonderful menu and a beautiful
space.

On Saturday, April 26, the WCHS partnered with several local establishments
to host a bar crawl that benefitted the
WCHS.
Sponsored jointly by the WCHS, Clazel,
Melt Shoppe, and Ink Mafia, this event
involved 15 Bowling Green eateries and
bars, all of which offered discounted
drink specials to bar crawlers 21 years of
age or older. The purpose of the event
was two-fold, according to Luc Gibb,
volunteer at the WCHS. The primary
goal was to raise money to support the
WCHS. A related goal, said Gibb, was to
provide a safe and fun event for members
of the university and local communities
to come together for a worthwhile common cause.
The event, dubbed the “First Annual
Puppy Crawl,” raised $2,371.64 for the
WCHS.
I am giving this membership to the person/family named
below.

As a no-kill animal shelter, we are always in need of funds for the
abandoned, abused, or neglected dogs and cats in our care. Your
money helps us to buy food, supplies and medical care needed to
house the animals in the shelter. With your help we can make a
difference. Any size donation is much appreciated.

Abra
Abra is a diabetic kitty on a prescription
diet who desperately needs to find a loving
home. Despite the constant poking and prodding that she must endure for insulin injections,
she is extremely sweet-tempered and loving. She is
a great lap cat and loves to be petted. She also is
quite the talker and is not afraid to let you know
when it’s dinner time. Abra’s adoption fee will
be waived and her new forever human can
take home whatever insulin the shelter
has for her.
Oakie & Duke
Oakie and Duke came to the shelter when their owner
passed away in April of this year. Both are male border collie
mixes. Oakie initially is a little hesitant with new people, but
you can tell he really wants to befriend everybody he meets and,
after he quickly overcomes his initial shyness, Oakie exhibits a
flirtatious personality that is absolutely adorable! Oakie’s brother,
Duke, has struggled with being in the shelter and has become
increasingly shyer. Like his brother, Duke is very loving once he
warms up to a person. Duke does, though, like other dogs a
great deal and he would do best if adopted with his brother,
Okie. The brothers are ideally suited for a very patient and
understanding home without children.
Mags
Mags is a senior, female
feline who has an adorable,
bunny-like appearance. She also has
a very wee “meow” which adds to her
charm. At first, Mags is a bit shy with
new people, but she quickly warms
up to kind people and she loves to be
showered with attention. If you have a
place in your home for a lovable lady
like Mags, especially a home with
lots of comfy places to nap, then
stop by the WCHS and ask for
“Mags.”

Applications for
Board of Directors
We currently are seeking applications
to our Board of Directors. The
WCHS Board is a voluntary working
Board of between 11 and 15 local
leaders dedicated to providing
direction and guidance to the nonprofit organization.
Board members are elected annually
for a term of two years. The WCHS
Board of Directors meets once
monthly for two hours. Individual
Board members also are expected to
serve as Chair or Co-Chair one of the
Board’s nine permanent committees.
Time commitments vary depending
on the time of year, the specific
committees in which a Board member
is involved, and the make-up of the
Board at any given time. However,
volunteers typically devote between 8
and 16 hours per month to Boardrelated activities.
Individuals who are interested in
applying to the WCHS Board of
Directors should contact Kathy Dean,
Vice President of Shelter Operations,
at deankk@gmail.com.

GIVING MADE EASY
What if Wood County
Humane Society
earned a donation
every time you
searched the Internet?
Or how about if a percentage of every
purchase you made online went to
support our cause? Well, now it can!
The Goodsearch toolbar is free to
download and allows you to raise
money for WCHS virtually every time
you search or shop online! Each time
you shop at more than 1,400 stores

be donated to WCHS—at no cost to
you (and you may even save money
as the toolbar also provides you with
thousands of discount coupons and free
shipping offers!). The toolbar also has a
search box and each time you search the
Internet, about a penny is donated to
our cause. It adds up - $635+ already.
Visit www.
goodsearch.com
next time you
are online -you
can even make
it your home
page.
It takes 3 simple steps:
1. Go to www.goodsearch.com

Q&A with Our New Event Planner
where she works on a daily basis with
area teachers to plan field trips to the
science center. Tara also currently is
working on gaining wedding planning experience so that she eventually
can open her own wedding planning
company.
Q: What interested you about the
Event Planner position with the
WCHS?
A: I like animals and think that having a pet is such an important part of
a family! So getting to plan events and
help animals sounded like a good deal
to me!
Q: Where do you see yourself in five
years?
In May, we hired Tara Moore as our parttime Event Planner. Tara is a 2011 graduate
from Bowling Green State University with a
B.S. in Tourism, Leisure Studies and Event
Planning. After graduating from BGSU,
Tara began work at Imagination Station

A: Professionally I want to start my

planning weddings, but I also love
working with nonprofits and everything in between so I am not exactly sure
what the company will be but hopefully a
little bit of everything. Personally, I already
have one son who is the love of my life! He
will be three months old on July 6th! And in
the next five years I hope to have at least one
The Wine & Dine Benefit was a fun and
fabulous night! BGSU’s ballroom in the
Bowen Thompson Student Union provided
a spacious and attractive setting.The buffet
grazing included many delicious choices
that kept delighted diners coming back for
more; tasty wines from Heidelberg Distributors, gorgeous flowers from Glendale Flowers and a great band. The auction items
were pretty tasty too: from vacations, fine
art and jewelry to car washes for a year and a
vaccuum cleaner... and Jerry Anderson kept
the live auction jumping!

more sibling for Luke.
Q: What do you enjoy doing in your
“spare time”?
I am a youth sponsor for my church (Perrysburg Alliance Church) which basically
means I get to hang out with the middle
school and high school students and teach
them about God! My most favorite thing
to do is hang out with people. You name
it, I just really love being with family and
friends. And when I am not doing any of
that I love to sit down and enjoy a good
book! I don’t really have a favorite book
and love everything, even cheesy love stories but especially Nicholas Sparks books!
Q: Do you have any animals?
A: We have one dog who is just about
five years old and her name is Sophie.
She is a Shih Poo (A Shih tzu poodle
mix).
Q: What are you most looking forward
to about your new position with the
WCHS?
A: I am looking forward to the events! I
love the planning but the best part of that
is seeing the end result and knowing that
all the hard work that everyone put into it
was for something amazing in the end!
VOLUNTEER
Focus
Sandy
Lepper
This edition of “Volunteer Focus”
celebrates the many contributions
that Sandy Lepper has made to our
organization. Sandy, a fifty-twoyear resident of Bowling Green, has
volunteered with WCHS since the mid1990s when she retired from teaching
English at Bowling Green High School.
During her time as a WCHS volunteer,
Sandy has provided a variety of
important services to our organization,
including depositing donations to the
organization for fifteen years, serving on
the Board for one year, walking shelter
dogs, fostering cats, and cleaning the
shelter. She also has worked all of our
major fundraisers, including Mutt Strut
and Wine & Dine. Between 1996 and
2008, Sandy spearheaded the annual
garage sale, which is held at the Wood
County Fairgrounds every May.
Currently Sandy maintains the
membership database for the
organization. Each week she also
collects donations of food and litter
from several area retailers, a service that
she has provided to the organization for
nearly seven years.
Of Sandy’s passion for and dedication to
the WCHS, Board Member Sue Frost
says, “Sandy has tirelessly volunteered
hundreds and hundreds of hours to the
Humane Society and we can’t thank her
enough for all she does for the animals,
staff and Wood County community.”
This summer we will dedicate a black
gum tree recently planted in front of
our shelter to Sandy in appreciation of
all of the work she does for us!

New Feral Cat
Committee Forms
In April, members of the WCHS, along
with volunteers from the local community,
convened the first meeting of a committee
that seeks to explore ways of addressing the
feral cat population in Wood County.
According to committee member Kathy
Dean, the first phase of committee work
involves intensive education about the
nature and scope of the problem in the
local area. To this end, committee members
currently are involved in learning about the
factors that influence feral cat populations.
Education efforts also involve researching how other communities address such
populations, reading extensively on the issue, and talking with experts about available
resources to address the issue.
Anyone interested in joining the committee
should contact Kathy at deankk@gmail.com
for information about upcoming meetings.
