- Feed and water animals
- Pen and shed maintenance (cleaning and rebuilding)
- Working with and handling the animals in order to humanize them: such as teaching them to walk on leashes, playing with them and showing them they don’t have to be afraid of humans.
- Holding animals so they can be groomed, medicated or having their hooves or nails trimmed.
- Start a fund raisier or We can use help in all aspects of our fundraising programs, both on a small and large scale.We would like to start a large annual fundraiser banquet or golf tournament for some of our future animal housing needs and our present basic animals needs. We also need people to work on committee that could help us to gain corporate sponsors. Our newsletters needs both creating, packaging and ad sales help.
SPRING / SUMMER 2001 NEWSLETTER
On December 18, 2000 a female goat owned by a family gave birth to 3 kids. The mother didn't have enough milk to feed all 3 so the family asked us if we would take this little white goat and bottle-feed her to see if we could save her.
This is Freddie, a young pigmy goat that we recently took in that needs a home. We would have named him Elvis because of his pompadour if we did not already have another goat named Elvis.
SUMMER / FALL
2002 NEWSLETTERThe Hampton Classics (the last week in August) started out wonderful, the weather was good and the donations and sponsorships of the animals was just fine. .
THE STORY OF OSCAR THE PIG (This is a true story)
A pig is called a boar. On the loose in Center Moriches in mid February 2006, a woman sees this loose pig in her yard and called the police. When they arrive, they found a 150-pound potbelly pig with tusks that had grown around out of its mouth into his cheeks.
FALL 2001/WINTER 2002 NEWSLETTER
Ringing in the New Year...Our Mama goats (Suzie Q, Priscilla, Jill, Vicky, Losac, Chewey and Snoobie) brought some babies into the world and we're happy to report that already two of them have been adapted out to good homes.
FALL 2001/WINTER 2002 NEWSLETTER
The little bull, Lucky still has his good fortune, but is hardly little these days! He's very playful and sometimes likes to head butt, but he's a good boy and seems to understand when we tell him he is a little too big for that china shop..
WINTER / SPRING 2002 NEWSLETTER
Winter fortunately was a mild one. A few cold days but nothing compared to last year. The unfortunate part was that since nothing really froze for any extended period of time, lots of parasites survived thru the winter and that is rough on the animals. .
