UVM Animal Science faculty, staff

Humane Society of Chittenden County on June 10th at Battery Park
in Burlington. Registration begins at 10:00 am with the
one mile walk starting at 11:00. We welcome all to join
our team and support the Humane Society. Don't have a
dog? Feel free to borrow one or just go for a leisurely
stroll surrounded by canine friends. Rain or shine it
