Team Scooby Sprinters – will you sponsor them on 29th April?

Scooby shelter 2 400
Eva, Špela, Urška &Žiga will run the 10km marathon in Medina del Campo in aid of Protectora y Santuario Scooby on 29 April. We are hoping you will support them and Scooby by sponsoring one or all of the runners per kilometre.

We know how much you love to support the Scooby animals and now, for the first time ever, we have an amazing opportunity for Scooby to have a presence in the Medina del Campo annual marathon. Not only one runner, but 4 which will give the shelter an unprecedented profile on its home ground. The Scooby animals are so lucky to have these runners going to such lengths (lengths of 10km to be precise!).

If you would like to sponsor the runners, please go to the Protectora y Santuario Scooby Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/spascooby/ and write your pledge per runner in the comments fields under the announcement about the run. We will post each runner’s time after the race on 29 April and when you see this alert, please PayPal your pledge to Edwin@scoobymedina.com Please bear in mind that PayPal deducts a small fee from your pledge. Regardless of how you pay, please mark your donation “runnername&yourname”. If PayPal is not possible for you, please private message us for an alternative means. The closing date for payments is Friday 18 May 2018.

You can meet the runners on this weblink.

Please pledge…. and share…… and keep sharing.

The pictures below show the fencing we need to replace (this is the reality, believe it or not). It is in the oldest part of the shelter, so at least 15 years old. If we don’t improve the fencing, we can’t keep the dogs enclosed and we won’t be able then to rescue so many from the streets and the galgueros.

We are lucky to have 4 young and keen runners, would be great to boost them and raise money for the replacement fencing. We need 800m of brickwork to replace this dilapidated fencing around these enclosures/paddocks, and the cost is likely to be €20k. We have €8k towards it and a pledge of €3k. Now we need the runners to get the rest! Please share and share, and share again. Thank you.
