The Romeo High School Environment Club is hosting a Dog Walk-a-Thon and pet costume contest fundraiser! We have partnered with a non-profit called Gravity Water. This organization partners US schools with schools in remote parts of Vietnam to provide rainwater collection tanks which will filter rainwater into safe drinking water for the students. Many of these schools are currently relying on bottled water, not only is this expensive it results in plastics entering the world's waterways. Join us at 1pm on Sunday, October 27 at Bruce Twp Park for this FUN event! There will be raffles, prizes, and treats for you and your pets! See the flyer for details! If you have questions, contact pamela.gedert@romeok12.org.
