Navan Animal Rescue Corporation (NARC)

First I would like to say that we could use a few new mops, brooms and mop pales for the rescue.  We are getting ready for another hard working weekend ahead.  Bought paint rollers and getting ready to start painting the rescue facility this weekend.  Lowes is coming to start building our gazebo connecting both the NARC building to the side trailer, giving us more room for clients visiting this winter.  Can’t wait to see the end results, will take pictures and share them as the work is progressing.  Together, we are also painting, closing off the back decks so we have less shoveling this winter and reducing the winter cold from coming in through the doggy trap door.  Many projects on the go, last weekend we put new gravel in front of NARC, this weekend we need to level it out and pact it down so that the plow this winter doesn’t push it around…  Go Go Go, let’s get this party started tomorrow bright and early in hopes of getting a few major projects done before winter.  If you are visiting in the next few weeks, please drive and park on the new gravel, only cars will help pact it down!

We give thanks to all of our wonderful volunteers, customers, friends and family who always bring dog food, Javex, mops, items for our auctions and of course, love/cuddles for our wonderful poopies.  Also thanks to being a home based rescue where our doggies were priviledge and spent the day outside, basking in the sun on this wonderful and warm Thanks Giving day… not caged all day due to staff being off!  We’ve worked hard all weekend, preparing for winter and give thanks to all the wonderful people who came and helped with the projects at hand.  Gravel spread in front of the modular home so that in spring it’s not as muddy, barn dug out, gravel spread inside and now for the cement truck this week to finish off the “Barn” Project.  Next weekend another big event, building the gazebo attached to the front entrance, painting inside NARC and of course preparing for our WALKATHON the following weekend.  Yep, don’t forget our Spooky Woods Doggy Walkathon on October 25th.  We will have a few spooky ghosts and gobblins walking the woods so beware WHOOAAA-HAHAHAHAH!!  Be prepared and dress up your pooches and yourself – Halloween is always the perfect time to get UGLY and SPOOOOOOKKKKKYYYYYYYYYYY….

Long weekend but no time to rest, time to clean up before winter and of course get prepared for next spring and spread some gravel near the front entrance again this year.  In hopes that this spring it won’t be as muddy, it is getting better every year but still a work in progress.  Also working on the barn this long weekend, solidifying it for the winter and preparing the sheds for the hay arriving soon!  Next weekend, the porch is being built (weather permitting) and we are all so excited about all of these projects on the go.  Can’t wait to take pictures and show you the outcome.  Feel free to come and help if you wish, we will certainly find you something to do Ha! Ha!  Next Sunday is also “PAINT THE HOUSE” day, we have paint donations from Lowes and will be painting the whole inside of NARC again this year!  Yep, only a year since we painted but this house certainly does get used and abused lol.  Will take progress pictures for you all to see!
