PAWS and Beautify CNMI!'s Animal Welfare Committee's Busy Weekend

Last Friday, Marites Castillo (President of FMI) and I attended the PAWS event held at the Fiesta Resort. Katie Busenkell, PAWS President and Chairwoman of Beautify CNMI!'s Animal Welfare Committee was there with the whole gang. Fellow blogger Jeff Turbitt was also there with his lovely wife Cynthia. Although I wished more lawmakers or aspiring lawmakers would have taken PAWS up on the invitation, all in all, it was an enjoyable evening.

Katie has posted some nice pictures on the PAWS blog. Click here for the photos and report of the other fantastic activities that PAWS was able to hold last weekend.

I also attended the Blessing of the Pets ceremony conducted by Father Ryan at the cathedral last Sunday. It was successful.

Well done Katie and Everyone! And, Katie, I'll make good on that cup of coffee!

Beautify CNMI-PAWS 1st Boonie Dog Show

We held this event months ago, but it was so much fun that when I came across this video on You Tube, I knew I just had to share it with you all again.

Judge Ken Govendo, Angelo Villagomez, and I had such fun judging this event. It turned out to be such a huge success that we're doing it again next year.

What Is Beautify CNMI!?

Many people are asking to know more about Beautify CNMI! One such opportunity to introduce Beautify CNMI! to the world came when Katie Busenkell, PAWS President and chairwoman of Beautify CNMI!'s Animal Welfare Committee, asked Angelo Villagomez to put together a short intro piece on Beautify CNMI! that she could present at her conference in American Samoa. Thank you Katie and Angelo. Captain Carl even liked this piece.

By the way, we have a longer version that we played at Beautify CNMI!'s one-year anniversary in April. Those of you who are curious can find that on You Tube.
