How you can help
We are asking volunteers to help us in several ways:
Host a booth: If you are an artist, crafter, or other vendor who specializes in cat-themed items, maybe you’d like to host a booth at the convention. We are still looking for vendors. There is no booth fee. We do ask that you send a photo or sample of your items as booth space is limited. If you are interested in hosting a booth, please contact Kimberly Chandler at 856-2000 x324 or kchandler@nevadahumanesociety.org
Volunteer: We will need many volunteer to help with the event. Volunteer tasks will range from set up, handling cats, running the info booth and many other jobs. If you’re interested, please contact Nikole Nichols, 775-856-2000 x321, nnichols@nevadahumanesociety.org
Help spread the word: Tell all your friends, family, and neighbors. Don’t forget to share it on Facebook and Twitter. The more people who attend, the more potential there is for cats to find adoptive homes. Not to mention that is will be a really fun time. Click here to read the news release. You can also click here to see or print the event flier. Please feel free to post the flier in local business or hand out to people.
Hope to see you at the Cat Convention on January 22!
