Last week HAWS held our annual Kids N Critters Winter Camp. 32 kids between the ages of 6 and 13 years of age attended and were able to spend time with animals, bake cookies with animal shaped cookie cutters, make pinecone bird feeders, and get a short sled time.
I know that wasn't 1000 words, but I thought I'd let some of the photos taken during the camp do the talking for me. In the meantime I get to start planning for our summer camp that starts in June, 2013. Enjoy!
My name is Khris Erickson, and I was the Humane Education Manager at the Humane Animal Welfare Society from 2004 through 2021. Animal shelters do much more than take in and adopt out animals - education is a huge part of the process.
I started this blog because there are so many interesting things that happen in the education department, I met many interesting people, and although I was supposed to be educating, I often learned new things in the course of doing my job.
In 2021 I obtained my SA Pro certification which certifies me to expertly work with clients who have dogs suffering from separation anxiety. In January of 2022 I started my business, Khris Erickson LLC, which focuses on treating separation anxiety cases. Because these cases are worked with remotely, I am taking clients from all over the USA.
I hope you'll enjoy what I have to say, maybe learn something new, and contribute by commenting on my posts.
