> Lake Co. IL Deputy Anthony Fanella has begun a non-profit organization seeking
> to memorialize all the great K9's who have bravely served our communities and
> given the most valuable gift of all, their lives. Deputy Fanella began the
> process of creating the Northern IL Police K9 Memorial in June of 2004 after
> the loss of his first K9 parner Sinbad, AKA Gent von Karthago
> http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/pedigree/328174.html

> As of 01/11/2011 the Northern IL Police K9 Memorial has received approval from
> the IL Attorney General and has been incorporated. It is their goal to assure
> that all police K9's that have served northern IL will have a place to be
> honored and memorialized.
>
> With the help of Highland Memorial Park in Libertyville, IL they now have a
> location for the memorial to be erected once the funds have been raised.
> Please consider donating to this cause.
>
> You can learn more on their facebook page,
> http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/NILPoliceK9Memorial?v=wall
>
> They have their first fundraising event scheduled for Saturday, April 2nd at
> the Lake Villa, IL VFW at noon. This will be a baggo tournament (aka Doggie
> Bags) in memory of Highland Park K9 Magnum. The charge is $40 per team of 2
> if registered by March 18th and $50 per team of 2 after that date. More info
> available on the facebook event page,

Viper,
This is a very worthy and noble cause.
This is the area that I am from.
My Mother and Father are both buried at Highland Memorial Park.
My dogs and I will enjoy having another reason to visit there.
I will see what I can do through my friends and contacts in the dog world to help.
--Steve
