Lions Club first annual Dog Bowl Fundraiser raises over $2000
KAMLOOPS — For many Canadians who are blind or visually impaired, getting a guide dog opens the door to living an independent life – but training guide dogs isn’t easy, and it certainly isn’t cheap. which is why all five Kamloops Lions Clubs teamed up this weekend, to hold a fundraiser event out at Falcon Lanes in Valleyview, with proceeds going to the Lions Foundation of Canada’s Dog Guide program.
They were setting them up, and knocking them down Sunday, at Falcon Lanes. It was the first annual Dog Bowl Fundraiser, held by five different Lions Clubs from across the city of Kamloops.
“What we’re hoping to do, is raise money to bring a guide dog into the community,” Dale Brush, North Shore Lions Club member, and chair of the event told CFJC Today.
