Record-Breaking Crowd at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League’s<br />

18th Annual Barry Crown Walk for the Animals<br />

Over 1,800 people and their adorable pets<br />

gathered for Peggy Adams Animal Rescue<br />

League’s 18th Annual Barry Crown Walk for<br />

the Animals on February 23, <strong>2019</strong> at the Meyer<br />

Amphitheater in West Palm Beach. Participants<br />

raised over $112,000, which will help save the lives of<br />

injured, homeless and abandoned animals that are or<br />

will be in the care of the League.<br />

Peggy Adams’ <strong>2019</strong> Walk mascot, Chloe, is a former<br />

shelter dog herself. Chloe, along with Rich Anderson,<br />

Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League’s Executive<br />

Director/CEO, led the walkers and their pets on the<br />

scenic one-mile route along the West Palm Beach<br />

waterfront on Flagler Drive. Anderson drove the pace<br />

car sponsored by Nozzle Nolen. Participants enjoyed<br />

a perfect South Florida day with live entertainment,<br />

local vendors and a complimentary breakfast provided<br />

by Lynora’s. There were also chances to win amazing<br />

silent auction items and raffle prizes. Jennifer Ross<br />

from SUNNY 107.9 FM and WFTL 850 AM once<br />

again graciously hosted the day’s festivities,<br />

including a pet costume contest with fabulous<br />

prize baskets sponsored by NCCI.<br />

“This was a record-breaking<br />

Walk for the Animals with<br />

more than 1,800 people<br />

registered,” Rich<br />

Anderson noted.<br />

“We were excited<br />

to have our<br />

annual event<br />

at the Meyer<br />

Amphitheatre in<br />

West Palm Beach<br />

and are grateful<br />

for all of those<br />

who came out<br />

and participated.<br />

As a nonprofit that receives no city or federal<br />

government funding, Peggy<br />

Adams relies on community<br />

support to help us provide<br />

services to more than<br />

30,000 cats, dogs,<br />

puppies and kittens<br />

every year.”<br />

This is the League’s<br />

largest public annual<br />

fundraiser and all<br />

proceeds benefit Peggy<br />
