To the Editor:

On Saturday June 20th volunteers made it possible to offer Newtown its 30th annual Low Cost Anti-Rabies Clinic. 

Local veterinarian Dr Kate Bakewell and assistant Mary Simpson of Mt. Pleasant Hospital for Animals vaccinated 16 cats and 60 dogs in only 2 hours. 

Thank you to the Volunteers of the Newtown Woman’s Club, Jean Swanhall, Marilyn Alexander, Mary Antey, Pat Denlinger, Marion Thompson, Ellyn Gehrett, Pat Bailey  and to Canine Advocates Volunteers Virginia Jess,  Cynthia Joyce, Stacy DeJulio, Frank McCloskey, Jude Caracciolo, Mary Singerland and Karen Lato-Jensen who donated their time to help make this annual clinic a success. 

Sincerely,

Debbie Aurelia Halstead
