December 8, 2016 - The City's Animal Services Division in partnership with Superior North EMS and Superior Street Cars, have produced a fundraising calendar featuring EMS professionals with rescue animals.

All proceeds from the sale of the calendars go directly towards spaying and neutering thousands of animals in Thunder Bay. 

"The calendars serve a dual purpose, not only are they a fundraiser, but they also raise awareness of the life-saving work done by EMS professionals every day," said Jody Kondrat, Supervisor - Animal Services. "Any time someone dials 911, highly trained medical professionals respond to deliver excellent emergency medical and pre-hospital care."

The 2017 full-colour 12-month calendar is available for $15. Quantities are limited.
