I attended a fundraiser for Sheriff Joe Arpaio at one of my many ventures, Meridian RV Park. The fundraiser was to support his program to help abused animals, Mash -- www.mcso.org Arpaio's no-kill animal shelter, MASH, was created to house and care for dogs, cats and horses that have been abused or neglected by their caretakers and rescued by the Animal Crimes Investigations Unit. The animals are then trained and cared for by inmates, then placed for adoption.
The purpose of the shelter is to provide a safe, healthy an healing shelter for these tragic animals, who must necessarily await the outcome of their owners' cruelty cases in court. Arpaio hopes their ultimate outcome will be adoption into a loving, permanent home.
Meridian raised money for MASH by selling tickets to a luncheon where baloney sandwiches, chips and soda were served. We had a great turn out!
I sat next to Sheriff Joe and gave him my card for the the murder mysteries and asked him to read them!
