7 Days, 800 Miles - 1 Man, 1 Bicycle, 1 Message: "Spay, Neuter and Adopt!"

The writer Sydney Smith once said "it is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do a little. Do what you can."

When you do what you can, it's amazing what you can accomplish - and who you can inspire! Last year, a man called Randy Boudouris rode his bike from San Francisco to New York City in order to raise money for a cure to Cystic Fibrosis on behalf of his daughter, Barbara. He successfully raised both money and awareness - and in turn inspired Bill Craig to take action on an issue he's passionate about - overcrowding in our nation's animal shelters.

This coming Saturday, April 5th, Bill will set out to ride his bike 800 miles in 7 days - from Dallas, Texas to Dallas, Georgia - to raise money for local animal shelters along his route, educate people about the overcrowding in shelters nation wide, and to bring the message of "Spay, Neuter and Adopt" to as many communities as he can. Visit his web site: http://www.d2d4wetnoses.com/ for more information about his mission and his commitment to this important cause.

Join us this Friday evening, April 4th, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m for a reception/press party for Bill, and to celebrate the spay, neuter and adopt cause.

MAC, PAWS in the City, Dog & Kitty City and Companions for Life will be jointly hosting the event, to be held at PAWS Corporate Headquarters at 3506 Cedar Springs in Dallas, Tx.

Tickets are $20 by advance reservation or $25 at the door, all funds to be earmarked for spay/neuter. Please e-mail: sandrasilver@sbcglobal.net for an advance reservation. Click here for the full invitation.

Whatever you do, don't do NOTHING - come and help support Bill's inspiring ride and the spay, neuter and adopt cause!
