GALT's
Third Birthday Party
May
1, 2004
Happy
Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to GALT, Happy
Birthday to you.

And a Happy
Birthday it was in spite of the weather being cold, windy and cloudy,
and it was May 1! It didn't seem to matter to the almost 100 people and
even more greyhounds who attended GALT's Third Birthday Party at Pilot
Knoll Park on Lake Lewisville in Highland Village, Texas.
It helped
to have good food, birthday treats (donated by Pam Hart - thanks Pam!)
for the dogs, birthday cake for the people, lots of greyt raffle items
and fun greyhound merchandise to purchase at the Greyt Store.
But the
greyhounds enjoyed it the most! The City of Highland Village provided
temporary fencing so there was at least an acre-plus of running area for
the greyhounds bounded on three sides by Lake Lewisville and on one side
by the fence. What a spectacular time the dogs had playing with each other
and swimming in the lake (Who said greyhounds are not water dogs?). No
waterfowl was caught, but it was not for lack of trying!
The mayor
of Highland Village presented a gift to GALT which was auctioned, together
with gifts from United Community Bank and the Cellar.
Services
were available from the Original Butt Sketch Artist, Mary Beth Gibson,
charcoal portrait artist, and Pet Psychic Robin Smith, making it a memorable
celebration!
Unfortunately
it began to rain as the party was breaking up but spirits were not dampened.
However, we do hope for better weather next year.
Thanks
to everyone, greyhounds and their people, for helping GALT celebrate three
years of making a difference - one greyhound at a time.
