EARS volunteer Mike Brodersen managed to do just that, and we're glad he did. He snapped this rare group photo at the end of the day, before anyone had a chance to shower or clean up. Despite their exhaustion and the oppressive heat, the volunteers still feel like saying that they're number one!
This photo was taken a few days into the response, so a (relative) calm and routine had been achieved. That day, the volunteers started caring for the animals at 8 a.m., took a mid-day break so all the volunteers and pups could enjoy a brief siesta, and concluded around 7:30 p.m.

ReplyDeleteAs a volunteer working at this event I had a great time meeting & working with everyone. Glad that all our hard work turned out for the best, you never know how a court will go.
ReplyDeleteI was hoping to see this picture online sometime, thanks for posting it.
I look forward to seeing you all at the next one.
Now, Who's in the picture?
From what my aged memory cells recall:
Bottom = Jessica & Andy
Back (L-R) = Patrick, ?, ?, Barbara, ?, Scott, Christine, Debbie, ?, ?, Rusty, Roxanne.
To those whose names I've forgetten, please take no offense, I'm surprises I remembered as many as I did.
PS... Barbara, you're not holding up the injured finger :-)
Oh, wait, this picture is before that.
