C.A.R.E. For A Pounding Success!

Our first ever "C.A.R.E. For A Pounding" event was held at Springfield Skateland on Sunday, March 11. Those tough roller girls from Springfield's Queen City Roller Derby are tough, but they have a soft spot for the animals! 

We took 9 animals to the event and 5 went home with his/her forever home! Anyone who brought a donation for C.A.R.E. received a ticket into the raffle. We received quite a bit of food for the animals as well as monetary donations!

One of the roller girls adopted Lou, one of our feline friends. They were so happy together!

The roller girls escorted the dogs out onto the rink for a C.A.R.E. animal half time show.

C.A.R.E. and Springfield's Queen City Roller Derby were LIVE on KSPR talking about the bout! Here is the link in case you missed it.
