The Petrified Forest National Park is currently in the process of a phased reopening due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As such, NPC Friends and Family’s Pedal the Petrified 2020 “in-person” ride has been cancelled and will now be held virtually. Pedal the Petrified 2020 – The Virtual Tour, will kick off August 15 and runs through September 19. 100% of the funds raised will help support NPC student scholarships.

The choice is yours! You choose the date of your ride, the location, the distance, and who rides with you! If you are self-isolating, ride your indoor bike! It’s up to you!

This ride raises need-based scholarship dollars for the students at Northland Pioneer College the only comprehensive community college serving all of Navajo and Apache counties in northeastern Arizona.

“I am very sorry to announce that we have had to cancel the Pedal the Petrified 2020 in-person ride,” conveys NPC Friends and Family Executive Director, Betsyann Wilson. “However, the current pandemic has made the need for student support in our service area even greater and the ‘Virtual Tour’ gives everyone and anyone a chance to not only participate in changing the lives of needy students but also gives participants an opportunity to have a little fun, get a little exercise and share their experience virtually with others,” she explains.

All participants will receive an official “Pedal the Petrified 2020 – The Virtual Tour” tee shirt to show off their virtual adventure and are encouraged to participate in a broadcast series of the event on NPC’s social media channels.

Register for the ride and find more information at www.npc.edu/pedal4scholarships or contact NPC Friends and Family Executive Director, Betsyann Wilson, at (800) 266-7845, ext. 6245, or email betsy.wilson@npc.edu.

Stay safe and keep on bikin’!

Cancelling Happy Tails 2020 for the health and safety of our community, volunteers and supporters was the right thing to do. However, the animals we serve are the ones that will suffer if we don’t find an alternative way to raise funds.

To this end and through generous donations from people who care about the welfare of homeless, abandoned and abused animals as much as we do, we are holding a Happy Tails 2020 Raffle Basket Extravaganza! in lieu of our live Happy Tails event.  We have five exciting raffle baskets you can purchase raffle tickets for: a Tool Lover’s Treasure Trove raffle basket; a Gardener’s Delight raffle basket, a Kitchen Extravaganza raffle basket, a Name A Litter of Puppies raffle and a Name a Litter of Kittens raffle and lastly we have a Big Love Package (a combination of tickets for all five raffles).  Pictures and an itemized list of all the items in each basket (and there are lots of items!), as well as purchase options and details on the drawing date, can be found on our website at https://hswm.org/happy-tails-2020.

We will hold a second raffle with different exciting raffle items in the Fall to kick off the holiday season.  Stay tuned for that announcement sometime in September!

If you don’t like raffles, will you be the animals’ hero by making a cash donation to help with their needs? Perhaps the amount you budgeted for the silent or live auction or one of our blitz raffles from our normally held Happy Tails event?  Any amount is appreciated! As with every Happy Tails event, all proceeds will go directly to the care and welfare of the animals we serve.

We have We look forward to seeing you all at Happy Tails next year, to be held August 28, 2021! Thank you for whatever support you can give!
