LAKE TAHOE, California – I, John Merryfield, am participating in the 2nd Annual Stand up for Farm Animals to help Farm Sanctuary raise awareness about the realities of factory farming. The annual Stand Up for Farm Animals helps fund Farm Sanctuary's education, rescue and advocacy efforts.
Its a 72 mile stand up paddle around the circumference of Lake Tahoe that will take 3-4 days. We leave Kings Beach on September 10th, 2010 at 8 am.
Farm Sanctuary is the nation's leading farm animal protection organization. Since incorporating in 1986, Farm Sanctuary has worked to expose and stop cruel practices of the "food animal" industry through research and investigations, legal and institutional reforms, public awareness projects, youth education, and direct rescue and refuge efforts. Farm Sanctuary shelters in Watkins Glen, New York, and Orland, Calif., provide lifelong care for hundreds of rescued animals, who have become ambassadors for farm animals everywhere by educating visitors about the realities of factory farming.
I hope you will make a pledge of support for farm animals in need by making a donation to the 2nd Annual Stand up For Farm Animals.
Let's paddle!
