TELMA SHAW

 

Telma Shaw, Board Member of G.R.I.N. (Galgo Rescue International Network) will be hosting a slide show by Mora Gonzani.  Mora attended last year’s G.R.I.N presentation in Solvang, and was so inspired by the message, that she decided to make the trek to Spain in December 2011 to help at one of the shelters!  Also latest news from G.R.I.N.

 

NEEDED:

If anyone has any gently used or new collars and leashes for the shelters in Spain, please bring them to Telma's talk/slide show.  Thank you!
