Supporting SICSA: SICSA, which works with homeless animals, has a funding event they call The Poop Show. This tongue-in-cheek game of chance allows you to purchase a “chance” to win $10,000! While the deadline is September 16 you can buy your chance right now. Go to: sicsa.org/poop-show
Haiku about Dayton: The Dayton Haiku Challenge provides an opportunity to create a new Dayton narrative through the beautiful poetry of Haiku.
