Come enjoy the Cars, Motorbikes, Trucks, Chinese auction, 50/50 draw, hot dogs and pop and who cannot forget the adorable rescues from AARCS.

Kensington Sun and Salsa Festival

We have organized a booth at the annual Kensington Sun and Salsa festival and are looking for volunteers, dogs and many people to stop by and visit or help out. If you are interested in helping during the day please contact Clarissa at clarissa.stetten@gmail.com or (403) 818-1945.

This year the festival will take place on Sunday, July 19th between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

The annual family event takes place along Kensington Road and 10th Street NW, and the Latin flavour will mambo through the neighbourhood all through the day. Music and dancing will fill the street, and our great restaurants and pubs promise to provide you with non-stop entertainment.

Both Kensington Road and 10th Street will be closed for the day. There's an LRT stop right at the Kensington Safeway, so public transit is a great way to beat the crowds.

A big thank you to Clarissa and Deanna for arranging the hats and posters and all the volunteers who took time out of the busy schedules to help us raise more fund for all out needy dogs!

AARCS Special Resolution Meeting

We are posting this for all our supporters, who may not be members, but may be interested in becoming members and/or attending this meeting. Following the vote for the special resolution we will discuss a number of things happening within AARCS and projects going forward. In order to vote at the meeting you must be a member of the society.

If you are interested in become a member, please go to the membership page under "How You Can Help" or you can sign up at the start of the meeting. As we look for more ways to fund our efforts, the more members we have the more we are able to show that we are supported by the community. I encourage you to sign up for a yearly membership. All the money goes back to the helping the dogs and we will issue a tax receipt.

It has come to our attention that we must change one of our bylaws. In order to change a bylaw, we must have a meeting to allow our members the opportunity to vote on the change.
