Thank you Glacier State Contractors

Gastineau Humane Society’s Board of Directors, staff and volunteers would like to thank Jim Mason of Glacier State Contractors for generously loaning his road grader and roller to GHS in order to do some much needed parking lot maintenance last weekend. We would also like to thank volunteers Hazel Reynolds for operating the road grader, and Robert Sanbei for his time and expertise in “spotting” for the grader operator and rolling the lot to level and finish. The donation of this equipment and time and expertise from these wonderful volunteers is greatly appreciated not only by those of us here at GHS, but also the members of our community who frequent the animal shelter.
