SouthernTech gathers 2,000 clothing items for Community Youth Services

The SkillsUSA Campus Officers at SouthernTech have been working on a community project with the Community Youth Services of Southern Oklahoma (CYS) to help boys and girls ages 0 to 18 with items they need. SkillsUSA contacted CYS to ask them what items they needed the most. They said they were currently sheltering only boys and were running low on boys’ clothing. From there, every SouthernTech program and student organization including SkillsUSA, HOSA and BPA collectively worked together to create a clothing drive for the boys at the shelter.

PET OF THE WEEK

Whiskey anyone? Don’t worry it’s just his name. Whiskey is a 6 year old, neutered male, mixed breed weighing in at 80 pounds. Don’t let his size fool you, he is as gentle and well mannered as they come. Whiskey will sit for treats, is crate trained, house trained, and loves to go on long walks and/or runs. He loves being around humans of all ages and wants a home that will not only give him affection but ample play time. Whiskey will require a home with a fenced in yard since he loves to run to greet everyone he sees. He will also require a follow up with his adopters veterinarian since he is heartworm positive. But, don’t let that deter you from adding him to your family. He quickly won over staff and he can win you over too! If you are interested in adopting Whiskey or any other animal currently at our facility you may call 580-223-7070, stop by 321 Carol Brown Blvd Monday thru Saturday 10-4, or visit https:// ardmoreanimalshelter.org.
