President and Co-Founder of Prairie Paws Rescue Kaye John says funds raised will go toward replacing the present van.

She says the vehicle is essential to animal rescues which is used it to get equipment and animals to meet and greet events, transporting animals to vet appointments, and picking up dogs from area pounds on death row to get them either to Prairie Paws or to other reliable havens.

She adds, the old van is a hazard to volunteers and pets as there is no heat, electrical doesn’t work with no ability to adjust seats, dome lights and most important no headlights for night time travel. The van is also used to bring animals to Meet and Greet Events around the area.

Kaye points out that there will be three acts, with intermissions at which time there will be raffle drawings, plus there will be silent auctions, including tickets to the police departments upcoming Pam Tillis Concert in Jamestown. Other items include Theme Baskets, and a Ford clock donated by R.M. Stoudt.

Raffles will include WeFest Tickets, with entries from the $10 purchase of a Prairie Paws Rescue mug

Other donations are welcome, at Post Office box 1114 in Jamestown 58402, and look for donation jars at various locations

Kaye also notes that CMA,ACM and Grammy Award winner and Country Artist Miranda Lambert’s MUTT NATION FOUNDATION…has donated $3000 to Prairie Paws for the help of defraying the cost. Lambert is a friend of Kaye John’s. The fundraiser goal is between $7,000 and $8,000 for the van.

Prairie Paws has monthly Meet and Greet events at Jamestown Tractor Supply company the 2nd Saturday of every month from 10am-2pm. She adds, the events have been a great way for people to come out and visit the pets.
