This Trivia Night promises to be a lot of fun; we know people really enjoyed that part of our most recent event. Thanks to our good friend, Jim Lucas, for agreeing to lead it again. It was a blast.

Its been great and busy year for animal rescue. We have a new calendar editor this year, but we are going forward and need your cutest pet pictures for our 2022 calendar. Please send us a favorite photo (no more than three per pet, please) of dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, any animal you care about, as long as it’s a good and interesting photo and was not used in our previous calendars.
Photos should be good quality (jpgs, at least 150 dpi or 4″x6″ in size), not blurry or dark, with no people (or people parts) in them. Please identify the animal(s) by name, and state the owner’s name.
The deadline for submission is August 10, 2021. Send to fobacalendar@gmail.com and include the words “2022 calendar” in the email subject line.
As most of you know, selling calendars is one of the ways FOBA raises money to support the rescue and adoption placement work we do. Receipt of your photos will be acknowledged, but please be patient because we receive lots of photos. If you don’t currently have a pet, but know someone who might like to have their animal friend in the calendar, kindly share this information.
For more information on our calendar, email fobacalendar@gmail.com. For further information or to ask about adoptions, etc., visit our facebook page, friendsofbeverlyanimals.org or call 978-927-4157.
Thank you for supporting the Friends of Beverly Animals and helping us save even more precious animals!
