ike other organizations across the world, Sullivan County Humane Society’s operations were thrown into disarray early in 2020. The inability to congregate in person affected not only the hours we were able to be open to the public but nearly all of our planned fundraising events for the year. Our skillful team was able to pivot to a virtual format for our annual Save a Stray 5K race. The generosity of our sponsors and individual supporters raised $7921.00 through our 2020 SCHS Virtual 5K, badly needed funds that helped us keep going throughout the pandemic. For 2022, however, we are delighted to announce that our race will be back in person! The SCHS Save a Stray 5K is a road race through the beautiful historic Corbin Covered Bridge on Corbin Road in Newport, NH. A $50.00 cash prize will be awarded to the top male and female finishers. Awards will be given to the top 3 male and female finishers. Not a runner? No problem! Many folks who take part walk the race route. If you are unable to come in person but would still like to donate, you may do so by going to our GoFundMe page and choosing a team to support. Post-race festivities include a BBQ, raffle prizes, and an award ceremony. In addition, we welcome your four-legged friends to participate with you. Dogs must be leashed and will start at the back of the pack. Donations will be used toward the SCHS goal of improving the quality Summer 2022
