2000 Events
Phase I clinics are large spay / neuter events where the Task Force provides all the materials and needs to set up a clinic with up to six surgical tables. The Task Force recruits the veterinarians and vet techs, a few experienced volunteers, and helps with publicity and educational materials.

Phase II are smaller, regularly scheduled spay / neuter events funded mostly by the host community.

At this point, the Task Force started using triplicate surgery forms to get a more accurate number. It is suspected that not all surgery Forms were turned in by Owners at Check-Out, and there may have been a 10% error margin. (The Task Force fixed more animals than recorded.)
