Interesting facts:

1. City Commissioners Vicki Blakeman, Bob Ebbinger, Mary Beebe and Patricia Grabow ALL volunteered! (Steve Caldwell wanted to but was out of town.) County Commissioner Dick Murphy also worked the event.

2. Livingston volunteers Brant Robey and Keith Laurie drove a horse trailer to Butte to help tear down the clinic and bring it to Bozeman Friday night. They also drove the clinic from Bozeman to Livingston on Saturday night.

3. The SPOT van (Stop Pet Over-Population Today) resides in Livingston, and so does the Task Force inventory. The inventory is counted and the van packed for each clinic right here, then driven to spay-neuter clinics all over the state.

4. Over 20 local businesses contributed to the event. Everything from food for the vets and volunteers, to oxygen, office supplies, and clean blankets was donated by Livingston businesses and individuals. Over 150 Livingston volunteers helped make this event a success. Local veterinarians and Stafford Animal Shelter employees were of great assistance.
