Humane Shelter donation

Humane Shelter donation 12-2014

540 Martial Arts in Van Wert hosted a “Pet Photo with Santa and the Grinch” this past Saturday to raise money for the Van Wert County Humane Shelter. More than $650 was raised, with over 70 photos taken. This event would not have been possible without the help and assistance of several local business, including Ashley Baxter from Gibby’s Photography, Matt Temple from Wassenberg Art Center, Dan “Diesel” Schwinnen, the Wollet family, as well as many volunteer families from 540 Martial Arts. Shown with Santa and the Grinch are Peter Weir (left), president of the Humane Society board, and Deputy Sergeant Randy Averesch, the county humane officer. (photo submitted)
