 September 27, 2008 Our "Concert in the Park" and Spay Neuter Clinic by TARA Mobile Feline Spay/Neuter Clinic, is scheduled for Saturday, September 27, 2008.
We'll have live music, vendors, Macaroni the Clown and food & soft drinks at the Concert. The Concert is our biggest fundraiser and we need a big turnout, so please mark your calendars and come and enjoy the music of the Coverup Band and all the other activities.
The Spay/Neuter Clinic will be held at our Concert in the Park on the same day, 9/27/08. This is a perfect opportunity to get your cat spayed or neutered at a very reasonable cost by a NYS licensed vet.
The cost is $60.00 per cat, and that cost includes the spay/neuter, a rabies vaccine and ear cleaning and nail trimming. A distemper shot is available for an additional $7.00, and deworming is available for an additional $7.00.
You must sign up and pay in advance for the spay neuter clinic, so please call our shelter at 294-8394 to make a reservation and get our address to mail your check.
The procedure is easy, just drop your cat off at the mobile clinic at our "Concert in the Park" location at the First Presbyterian Church property in the center of the Village of Goshen between 7:30am and 8:30am. Your cat will be checked in and kept in the mobile clinic and then you may return to pick up your Cat between 4:30pm and 5:00pm that same day.
In between, come and enjoy our Fundraiser and listen to the great Coverup Band. This band is really good and great for the whole family. Hot dogs, hamburgers, soft drinks, vendors and a 50/50 will be some of the events, so please support your shelter and come on down.

Fencing was recently installed for the dogs. Thank you to Marcia Faber for donating money to divide the yard into 2 play areas for the dogs. The dogs love being able to run and play.
An awning has been place over the front door. This was donated by the Bossleys. "Awnings of the Hudson Valley" which is located in Middletown, NY graciously donated their time to install this for the shelter. They have also offered to donate smaller awnings for over the windows in the parking lot.
Harry Footes delivered a custom made shed for the shelter and also set it up for us.
Chets Garage offered to donate his time and removed the 2 old metal storage bins in the yard. These had become very rusted and were becoming a hazard, especially since the yard was now enclosed and the dogs could move around.
Back yard of shelter has been cleaned up and junk taken away. Grass was also planted. The dogs are having a great time and have a lot more freedom.
We recently also hired a local Architect (Dave Crawford) to draw up plans for the addition. Please look for more updated information in the near future.
