How You Can Help!
Labrador Retriever Adoption Service (Lab Rescue) exists because of our volunteers’ passion for Labs and our incredible donors – they make this organization possible. To continue our great, lifesaving work we must increase our fundraising efforts. Lab Rescue has one Special Event per year called Labrapalooza! The event is a huge party for dogs held in October each year that includes a fundraising walk in the park and lots to do and learn. To celebrate our 10 year anniversary this year we would like to welcome new, high energy individuals to the EVENT PLANNING Team .
Specifically, we are looking for a volunteer that would like to take on this one time project working with the Lab Rescue President to make this year’s Labrapalooza the best Lab party to date. If you think you have the experience, passion and energy to get involved in this event planning please contact our team today!
