Running from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Palermo Leash-free Park at Dundas Street West at Bronte Road, the fundraiser has lots to offer. There will be a barbecue staffed by volunteers from the Oakville Fire Department, a dunk tank, dog demonstrations, an ask-the-vet session, ask- the-trainer session, a nail trim station, a raffle and an auction. "We are a non profit group of volunteers in Oakville who work hard placing unwanted, neglected or abused dogs into new loving homes. We have fabulous dogs in local foster homes all waiting for new loving families," said Joan Znidarec. Dogs come into the program for reasons ranging from abandonment and abuse to chang- es in an owner's personal life. The program accepts dogs directly from their current families as owner surrenders, but also has long standing relationships with many of the humane societies and animal controls through- out the province. It works closely with these organizations and often has dogs referred to it to help relieve overcrowding or to help in situa- tions where there is a lack of resources. The event will run rain or shine and all friendly dogs and people are welcome to attend. For more information, visit www.thedogres- cuersinc.ca. Halton Regional Police in partnership with the Oakville YMCA, the Oakville Optimist Club and the Birch-Glen Co-op will be setting up a portable skateboard park for the benefit of local children on Saturday, Sept 24. The portable skateboard park, which will be set up at 1160 Dorval Dr., from noon to 3 p.m., will give local children in the Dorval Drive com- munity an opportunity to participate in super- vised skateboarding activities without the need to venture across town to fixed skateboard parks. YMCA staff and the Dorval Drive Village Constable will supervise the event. For more information, contact 905-825- 4747, ext. 2292. Speak up!
