OFFICIAL REPORT

HAPPY EASTER! HAPPY PASSOVER! HAPPY SPRING TO EVERYONE!

The weather is great so please go outside and take advantage of it! Play fetch at the park,
lay out in the sun (with sunscreen) or have a picnic (don't forget the doggy treats!). I personally
can't wait for the egg hunt. I can always sniff them out so fast!
Whatever you do - stay safe and have a wonderful time.
