Thank you ALL for coming & showing your support on such a special & memorable day!
On October 28, 2006 we celebrated our
4th Anniversary and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.
 |
Bianca, wearing her Ambassador sash, walked with Grandmother Jean and Austin to welcome everyone to the Saint Francis Wolf Sanctuary. "It was an honor for me to be able to meet and greet everyone who came out for our celebration! We all had so much fun, both two-legged and four!"

The Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Jean LeFevre presented Steve & Kathy Reeves with the scissors they used to cut the ribbon.
|
 |
 |
There is a tradition that when receiving a gift of knives or scissors, you must "pay" for them or it can "cut" your ties with that person. Here, John Wiesner is lending the Reeves a penny to pay for the scissors. |

Yoda was the star of the show during his behavioral training presentation with Trainer Ken Bain and Volunteers.

 |
Yoda walked proudly next to a
guest who was wheelchair bound, wearing his ‘Ambassador in Training’ sash. "I was happy to be able to show off my socialization skills. I have been trained to meet and interact with my two-legged friends who are in wheelchairs. She gave me GREAT ear scratches!" |
