SPRING HAS SPRUNG
Even though the temperature is not cooperating and Punxsutawney Phil may have lied about an early Spring, our calendar says that it has arrived. We are determined to celebrate the season in this newsletter. Find out about a wonderful water park for kids, some fun ways to mark Spring Solstice, summer camps, local golf clubs, and Easter & Passover events. In keeping with our Smile Initiative, we have featured a "Positively Bucks County" blog, our "Brighter Side of Life" public journal, and a wonderful dog who is in desperate need of a "furever" home.
This issue is sponsored by Sahara Sam's Oasis - Indoor and Outdoor Park who has been a major contributor to the Special Needs Community. Sahara Sam's has been hosting quarterly Special Needs Events exclusive to individuals and families of the community. These special evenings provide a judgment free atmosphere with networking opportunities that enhance the lives of hundreds of individuals with special needs. Find out more about exclusive Special Needs Events and why giving back is a priority for the owners of Sahara Sam's Oasis.

| FEATURED ADOPTABLE PET | |
 |
Meet Flash. He is a 1.5 year old male pit bull who needs a second chance. He was abused, but has gotten past his shaky beginnings and is now a healthy, athletic, super-affectionate dog, who will wiggle worm into your lap for some love. Flash is microchipped and neutered. His time in a Newark shelter is limited, so we are trying hard to find him a foster or forever home before it is too late. Friends of Flash have offered to drive him to your house for a meet and greet. If you are interested in meeting Flash, contact Fly Away Home (201-519-4708). For more information about this wonderful dog, click here. |
