Alert | That's fantastic. I don't know the video game guys, but I have heard good things about them.
I do know that Kimberly does a tremendous amount of social work on behalf of lost/stray animals. She has driven way out of her way to pick up an animal and get it to shelter. I remember her spending a day with a poor tick infested dog giving it every chance possible to survive a terrible ordeal. The list goes on an on - I think everyone hear has heard of something that she's done for animals above and beyond what she does for her business.
So, it stands to reason that someone who cares so much about critters would succeed in a business that takes care of them while their owners are out.
Congrats, Kimberly! | | Stupid should hurt!

Alert | GG - Thanks for posting! Would have sent you a PM but it seems that feature is still not available.
I'm up against some stiff competition. The guys at DVD & Game Depot certainly are a positive force in our community, and I can't even imagine the incredible things I could do for our pet population if I had the budget Harrah's has!
Thanks for the well wishes! | | | |

Alert | Actually, Home Is Where The Hound Is pays the bills & is the greatest job in the world! The rescue - Tails of Hope / PetSocialWorker.org is where all my free time goes! I didn't actually get nominated for the rescue (volunteer work) but for the business. The two certainly go hand & hand and often blend into each other, but for this particular award, it's for the criteria GG posted initially. There are 3 wonderful individuals that were nominated for the Renate Chamberlin Volunteer of the Year award that will be given the same night: Joyce Hollis (former 85239.com employee) Peggy Opal & Kim Calderone.

Alert | | Renate Chamberlin is a Maricopan who has devoted a TON of time to the betterment of our city & to The Chamber. She was given a Thank You award by The Chamber last year & each subsequent year the volunteerism award will be in her honor. I know Joyce Hollis well & also Peggy Opal, but I don't know Kim, so I don't have a lot of info. about her. | | | |
