Animal Shelter adopts
out 127 animals in June

Animal Services has started
sharing monthly statistics on
their Facebook page as a way to
boost awareness in the community,
and to gain the trust and confidence in
the fact the staff is doing all it can to
adopt as many animals as possible.
They have also been posting daily intake
numbers during this busy season, as well
as photos of pets available for adoption,
all of which seem to be helping their
efforts. Local and out-of-state rescues have
also helped tremendously. For June, the
shelter adopted out 127 animals.

Narcan training on July 11

The Police Department is hosting a free Narcan
Training for the public at 6:30 p.m. on Monday,
July 11, at the Police Station, 641 Malvern
