Forward this eNews to them and see if they'd like to participate in GALT's first ever Greyt Golf Fundraiser Tournament! Teams of 4 are being formed, so don't wait! Everybody knows somebody who golfs - get them involved! Or, for entertainment's sake, form a team of amateurs and make it interesting - who knows? Maybe someone will go pro!

 The format is shotgun start and a four player shamble. Everyone uses the team's best drive, then plays their own ball. Team uses score of the best player on that hole. The event includes lunch, range balls, greens fee, cart fee, contests, dinner, t-shirt, goodie bag, team photos, raffle tickets, and more! Prizes will be awarded for 1st and 2nd place - two flights. Longest drive, hole-in-one, closest to the pin and many more prizes will be awarded as well. Still not sure? Help elsewhere: - playing in the shamble can be the most exciting way to help - no you don't need a single digit handicap to have a great time or win a prize. Donation for an individual player is $125, a team of four is $500.
- volunteering the day of the shamble is great fun for those that chose not to play
- becoming a sponsor
- making a direct cash donation
- making a donation for the raffle and/or auction
- contact your family, friends and co-workers who might want to participate or be a sponsor.
Help make GALT's first Greyt Golf Tournament a success!

It's that time of year again - when we strut our stuff for the GALT greyhounds. The best part is that you can strut anywhere - in your neighborhood, at the gym or even by just kicking back on your couch if that is your preferred style. The strut is on Saturday, September 28th - plenty of time to fundraise!

INCOMING DOGS
Dallas, aka Slatex Dallas, is a 2 1/2 year old black female born November 1, 2010. Her sire is Trent Lee and her dam is Slatex Isabella. Dallas has 60 races on record on greyhound-data.com, all at the Gulf Greyhound Park where she was a solid grade AA racer. She started her career on July 20, 2012 and finished it on August 11, 2013 with a broken right hock. She is scheduled for surgery at the Dallas Veterinary Surgical Center on Monday, August 26th.
Dottie, aka Cowgirl, is an 8-year-old white and black female born June 4, 2005. Her sire is Ethereal Eagle and her dam is Rosalyn. Dottie never raced, preferring to head straight for an adoptive home where she lived for six years. Unfortunately, Dottie was not adapting well to the new addition of small children to her home, so she has joined the GALT family to search for a new retirement home. Dottie is cat tolerant.
