Woodland Elementary students at Kingsford launched a Pennies for Paws fund-raising campaign for the month of March to benefit the Springlake Animal Shelter. Students were asked to bring in change to be donated toward building a new animal shelter. With help from Dairy Queen, Domino’s and Pizza Hut, Woodland was able to host a contest awarding the top two classes that brought in the most amount of money. A final award ceremony was held at the Woodland Elementary Gym on March 30, 2007. Accepting a $4,590.54 check were Bill Hardacre, Springlake Animal Shelter Board Chairman; and Shelter Manager Diane Luczak . Wells Fargo was present as well to donate funds from a bake sale held by the bank in conjunction with Woodland’s fund-raiser. Ford Airport also collected coins for the event.
