River City Heads to Waycross!!!
Find us at Tractor Supply on US 1!
After many requests to bring the van to Ware County, RCCAH is now serving WAYCROSS, GEORGIA, at least two days per month. We have many faithful clients from Blackshear, Waynesville, Screven, Homerville, Nahunta, Pearson, and the Waycross area who have trekked east to Brunswick to have their pets spayed or neutered, and now we can serve them much more directly.
This will make safe and affordable spay neuter and wellness services available for Ware, Pierce, Brantley, and other southern Georgia counties and also provide animal care education and information about health issues to pet owners. We have been parking the mobile unit at the Tractor Supply Store right on US 1, so it is easy to find, and convenient to all.
Information about when spay days are scheduled in Waycross (as well as other locations) may be found here on the website by clicking on the CALENDAR link and then SPAY DAY LOCATIONS.
River City has been warmly welcomed by many local pet advocates in Waycross, and we look forward to making a big difference for the pets and people of this community. With everyone’s help, we plan to reduce the tragically high numbers of dogs and cats euthanized in local animal care facilities, where “surplus” animals are taken and for which homes are rarely found. With increased awareness of this issue of uncontrolled reproduction and with a safe and affordable option available, we are going to work very hard to make Waycross a better place for pets and their owners!!!
And the Winner Is………..
We held our TOM BRADY football jersey raffle, and our great friend Tammy Barry won the jersey. Tammy lives in Virginia, so it was a long distance win, so that Jersey has done some traveling. Tammy has been a supporter of RCCAH since the very beginning, and she was very excited about the possibility of winning, so we are all happy that the jersey went to an appreciative winner!!
Here is what Tammy has to say:
“As a supporter of the RCCAH I was happy to purchase raffle tickets for the recent Tom Brady jersey giveaway as a way to support a top rate organization. Imagine my surprise when I actually WON; I’m the person that never wins anything!! The icing on the cake is Tom Brady is the ONLY football player I follow, and not just because of his looks. RCCAH does fantastic work on a shoe string budget. I’m happy to support their spay/neuter efforts to make a difference in pet overpopulation.”
Paws For a Cause Pet Walk and Festival
In February, RCCAH had our First Annual Paws For a Cause Pet Walk and Festival at Howard Gilman 
Memorial Park in St Mary’s, Georgia. Our original date was December 14, but we seem to have a River City tradition of being rained out, and that day was no exception. The February date gave us great weather and a great turnout and was a lot of fun!
We hope to make this an annual event and start a tradition in St. Mary’s and Kingsland and keep the community aware of animal issues and how they can help, as well as promoting education and introducing everyone to the wonderful rescue and animal related groups we have in this area, ALL WHILE HAVING FUN!
Please keep checking back for news on the next big event!!!
