Oconee County Animal Shelter Holding Petfest On Saturday To Raise Money For Adoption Program

The Oconee County Animal Shelter is holding a petfest on Saturday at Heritage Park in the south of the county to raise money to support the Shelter’s adoption program.

The event will include pony rides and face painting for children, food and crafts for the adults, and low cost rabies vaccines and microchipping for the pets.

The event, which will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. regardless of the weather, is free to the public. Parking also is free.

Money raised from donations, from fees paid by vendors, and from sponsorships, will go into the Shelter’s medical fund to treat animals to make them ready for adoption.
