We've written before about the work of the San Luis Valley Animal Welfare Society, and their weekly pet adoption fairs at the North Academy Blvd. PetSmart in  Colorado Springs.     

Thanks to the sponsorship of PetSmart and Hill's Science Diet, the Society will be taking part in PetSmart Charities' Second Chance For Love Fall Adoption Weekend.  Nationally, the goal is to fnd forever homes for 18,800 derserving pets! 

At least 75 dogs and puppies - plus a few kitties - will be along for the Colorado Springs pet adoption event, every one wishing to meet their own special human(s).  If you've been thinking of adding a new family member, you'll have plenty of lovable creatures to pick from. 

Other fine animal rescue groups will also be participating, so you'll have numerous cats plus small animals to choose from as well. 

Hours are Friday and Saturday from 10 am to 7 pm and Sunday 10 am to 6 pm.  The event will take place at the PetSmart near Constitution and Powers, 2965 New Center Point.   Every adopter will receive valuable coupons and free samples, and rumor is that there will be some prize drawings, too. 

Can you give a rescued pet a second chance for love and a responsible, permanent home?  In return, you'll get licks, snuggles and faithful companionship.  And possibly even undying adoration!  Doesn't that sound like a win-win situation?

There's always something special about shopping downtown during the holiday season.  There, you find tradition, unique stores, a festive atmosphere, and a vast variety of cozy restaurants and coffee shops when you need to supplement your shopping strength.  It's also a great place to catch up with friends during a holiday brunch, lunch or dinner.

And while metered parking is always free on Sundays, you can also park in the metered spaces at no cost on the first three Saturdays in December - the 6th, 13th, and 20th. 

If you're attending the Parade of Lights on Saturday, December 6th, it's best to be downtown early, so it's the perfect time to work some shopping in and grab a bite to eat before the parade starts.
