About Get Your Licks on Route 66(R)
Founded 13 years ago by Susan Sims, Publisher of FIDO Friendly Magazine, as a way to make adoption events fun. "So many times, an animal shelter is a sad place to be, knowing that many pets are there due to no fault of their own," said Sims. "We bring our sponsor supported spinning wheel where with a donation, adoption event attendees can spin and win fabulous prizes with all proceeds benefiting the shelter of the day."
