Go Orange for the Animals

The Krewe of Barkus & Meoux and the Louisiana Boardwalk in Bossier City, Louisiana participated in ASPCA’s: Go Orange for the Animals. It was a huge success. We teamed up with local animal groups such as Caddo Animal Shelter, Humane Society of Northwest Louisiana, Robinsons Rescue, Hopeful Haven, Red River Responsible Pet Ownership and Caddo Caring Canines. Together we created a sea of orange to bring animals and their well being to the table. We had games and fun for all ages. But by far our proudest moment was when we learned that we had adopted out 40 animals to new homes.

We had plenty pf activities on hand for our orange dressed animals. The Boardwalk provided prizes for our games. We even had an animal version of musical chairs. One of the local merchants, Cold Stone Creamery even provided us with free orange ice cream cake for the event. We were very pleased that Laura Lanza, with the ASPCA, joined us for this orange celebration.

The 2007 ASPCA: GO Orange for the animals at the Louisiana Boardwalk was a great success. We are very proud to have been a part of your celebration. We hope that this will be yearly event in the Shreveport/Bossier City area. The huge adoption and working with the ASPCA for animal awareness was an awesome experience.
