Dr. Gordon asked if it was possible to offer naming rights to raise funds for a

that was a possibility.

to support DAS' agenda.
Dan Rheaume stated that he has only been here a short time, but everyone is really here
for the animals.
Marjorie Bloom stated that the Advisory Board and the volunteers went to the Board of
County Commissioners to get air conditioning for the kennels and now DAS has it.
Mary Baker advised that she is on the Board to give a better view of DAS to the public.
Dan Rheaume stated that he will not be able to attend the next Board meeting, but the
Board needs to start talking about the next project.
Mary Baker stated that in addition to the Humane Society Naples (HSN) getting a
spay/neuter bus, she heard that SNIP Collier is also going to get a bus and said that if
DAS gets one too, that may be too many.
Marjorie Bloom stated that she would really like DAS to stand on its own.
Dr. Sinka advised that sharing a bus with HSN raises many questions, including who
will permit and maintain the permit for the bus and who will pay for the drugs needed

and how controlled substances will be logged and tracked. He stated that it would be
very difficult to switch back and forth between the two groups because all drugs and
supplies will have to packed up and removed each time the operator of the bus is
changed.

there would be too many buses.
Dr. Gordon stated that local veterinarians may volunteer time to provide services on the
bus.

increase interest in the fundraiser.
