We are pleased to announce that the Fernie Pets Society will receive grants totalling $26,702.24 from the Columbia Basin Trust in 2020. The CBT's Community Initiatives Program supports local projects that provide additional value to Basin communities and that benefit the broad community and public good.
Our Elk Valley Spay & Neuter Incentive Program - SNIP helps to offset the cost of reproduction control for cats throughout the Elk Valley. The Fernie Railyard Dog Park funding will be used toward the cost of fencing the off-leash park that is being developed and managed by the Pets Society.
We are grateful to the communities of Fernie, Sparwood and Elkford, and to the Regional District for their support
