Smiling Cuvee

The 10th Annual Arizona Animal Fair is an all-day festival celebrating pets! The event is attended by over 8,000 people, all proceeds from the event benefit the animal rescue community. Can you help?

Event Date: Saturday March 5, 2011 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Set-up: Thursday March 3 (physical labor) & Friday March 4 (somewhat physical)

Volunteers are critical to the success of this event. Grab a friend or teenager (or a gaggle of young adults) and c’mon down. Meet like-minded animal lovers and have fun.

Assistance is needed with the following:
–Super Adoption Area – help meet the goal of finding forever homes for 100+ animals!
–Vendor Relief – the fun job of cruisin’ the fair, offering breaks to vendors as needed.
–Event set-up & break-down – put your muscles to work and it burns calories
–Food Court & Beer Garden – keeping everything tidy & safe for fair goers
–Pet Psychic Booth – schedule appointments with our animal intuition expert
–SAFE Store – sell t-shirts and other cool stuff with all proceeds benefiting SAFE (Saving Animals from Euthanasia)

Location: Reid Park, on the NE corner of 22nd St/Country Club Blvd.

If you only have an hour to help set up (during your lunch hour), all hands are welcome. But, people who volunteer for a 4-hour shift or longer receive a free awesome t-shirt commemorating the 10th annual event.
