The Gender and Women's Studies Program at UMBC is proud to announce that the 1st annual Puppy Picnic was a huge success!
In an effort to offer students at UMBC a reprieve from the stress of the last week of classes and impending finals week, the GWST Council of Majors, Minors and Certificates (GWST COMM) invited to campus DogsXL, a local dog rescue specifically for large breeds. Several of these big "puppies" joined us on the Quad for a picnic, and lots of love and affection. DogsXL provided information about adoptions and foster opportunities, and at least one forever home was found at the event, with more to come.
The UMBC Mascot, True Grit, our own Chesapeake Bay Retriever, stopped by for a visit and played with the puppies from DogsXL, as well!
Follow the GWST COMM Facebook page to see pictures of the dogs who visited, and to stay up to date on future events. Then be sure to look for us in the news on ABC2 and WBAL!
