The Island Sanctuary Open Day 2019

Open day

As usual we will be having various stalls besides our Bazaar, Pet Shop and Bookshop. A new item on the Food and Drink Table will be the Vegan Burger, this year.  So as you can see we have tried our best to please everyone!

Besides the Face Painting for the children throughout the day, there will also be the Bouncy Castle in the morning. For the first time this year we will be having a hair dressing station for the kids. Services offered will be Plaits, Fishtails, French and Dutch Braids, Rope Braids and Fancy kids hairstyles. The children I am sure will love all this! But if any of the adults would like to have a go with one of these hairstyles, I am sure our hairdresser will oblige!

The event will start at 10.30a.m. and end with Mass at 4.00p.m. This means that at 3.30p.m. all stalls will close to prepare for the Mass.  Of course all those attending the Mass are invited to bring their pets along.  At the end of the Mass all pets will be blessed and a small token will be given to each family.

Pets are welcome throughout the day. It would be so nice to see many of our lucky ex-sanctuary dogs!

As you can see it is going to be a Fun Packed day so do come and visit us and see the new admissions and read their stories! They depend on you and your generosity! The volunteers will be only too glad to show you around and give you all the information you would like!
