Hughesville, MD – If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to volunteer in your community, the Tri-County Animal Shelter (6707 Animal Shelter Road, Hughesville) has a place for you. The shelter is in need of volunteers, ages 14 years old and over, to assist with caring for the many animals in our facility.
There are several volunteer duties offered, including walking shelter dogs, spending time with the cats, taking photos of adoptable pets, general housekeeping, washing dishes and toys, cleaning kennels, and assisting with laundry. You can volunteer as little or as much as you would like.
Volunteers must submit required volunteer forms, which can be completed at the shelter.
