Lycoming Animal Protection Society or LAPS recently moved to South Williamsport where volunteers care for 70 to 75 cats that are available for adoption. Board member Linda Williard was selling T-shirts and other items to help the shelter pay its rent that recently doubled. She is also a volunteer with Mostly Mutts no-kill dog shelter in the Sunbury area and Pennsylvania P.E.T.S. (Prevent Excess Through Sterilization). LAPS can be reached at 327-8707 and donations sent to the organization at 195 Park Drive, SouthWilliamsport, PA, 17702.

Next to her was Elaine Foster who makes dog scarves for all occasions to raise money for Fair Point Rescue to help pay for hay for horses. Far Point, of the Port Trevorton area, has 24 horses some of which are not adoptable and dogs and cats in need of homes. Scarves may be ordered at and Far Point reached at 374-2696. Donations may be sent to the organization at 1105 Red Hill Road, Port Trevorton, PA, 17864.

T & D's will sponsor another special event Sept. 20 to show off three new tiger enclosures. One tiger will live in each enclosure covering about a third-acre. Scout Weekend will be Oct. 18 and 19 at the refuge, which can be reached at 837-3377. Contributions may be sent to T & D's at P.O. Box 186, Penns Creek, PA, 17862.
