s A “Crash” Course at Camp
Crash, a two-year-old Labrador Retriever, takes
direction from Humane Society camper Leia Mayberry,
age 11. Campers interacted with a variety of animals
during six week-long camp sessions in July and August
designed to educate children on the proper care of
companion animals and to foster compassion for all
living things.
s 101 Dog Lovers
This May, the J*Company Youth Theatre, a program of the San
Diego Center for Jewish Culture at the Lawrence Family Jewish
Community Center, JACOBS FAMILY CAMPUS, ran its production
of DISNEY’S 101 DALMATIANS Kids. In a partnership with the
San Diego Humane Society, a public service slideshow was run prior
to each performance, and mobile adoptions were held on-site for two
performances. Prior to the production, the 101-member cast toured
the Humane Society facility and received information about pet care,
adoption, and the prevention of animal cruelty and neglect.
