The Elk Country Animal Shelter was formed in November 2002, working as a group to raise the funds needed to build and operate our planned shelter in Montmorency County, Mich. At this time,we don't have a facility but are very active in humane education and spay and neuter programs for the community. We hope to be up and running within the next 2 years.

We find ourselves a bit closer to our goal of building our shelter facility in Montmorency County. We have made great strides in promoting the dogs and facilitating the adoptions at our sheriff's dept. No dogs went for research in nearly 2 years, not one!!! Until our shelter is built, we will continue to help the dogs that come into our county animal control. Our building site was donated to us by the county, and we have put up our "Future Home Of" sign; it looks fantastic and is a real step towards what we are working for.

Our 2005 raffle went very well, the date of the drawing was Sept. 23 at the Atlanta Elk Festival. The Lucky winner of our ATV is Jim McSwain. Our annual Hillman dinner was held at the K of C Hall on M-32 in Hillman on November 12th. We had a wonderful menu planned, a real turkey dinner with all the fixings and a live auction. Dinner/auction was a tremendous success with many attending the dinner and auction. This is our third annual dinner in Hillman, and it just keeps getting better each year. We appreciate all the support!

We always have a selection of sweatshirts, regular and hooded plus T-shirts with our logo on them; these are very nice. If interested, contact Pauline. We are continuing the process of raising funds to build a animal shelter that will enable us to better care for homeless animals in our community. Donations are greatly appreciated and needed so we can reach our goal as soon as possible. If you would like to make a tax deductible donation to help us build a shelter, please send a check to the following address: Elk Country Animal Shelter P.O. Box 434 Atlanta, MI 49709.
