Rescue U volunteers are still hard at work in Emporium, PA, completing construction of the Cameron County SPCA. (Here's my first post about the project.)

The student volunteers have finished several projects so far. The concrete forms to add kennels inside and out are poured and the fences are built. They've added the plumbing the SPCA will need to set up bathing and vetting areas. There are newly built raised beds and toys for the influx of pets the shelter will receive upon completion.

The inside of the shelter was little more then framed wood when we got here. Now, the walls are insulated, up and hung, the drywall is finished. The transformation is amazing.

Watch this clip of Rescue U volunteers pouring concrete for the new dog kennels.

The trucks are packed and the volunteers are ready to work for the next Rescue U outreach trip, this time at the Cameron County SPCA in Emporium, PA . (Watch this video of our last Rescue U trip by The Dog Files.)

The SPCA is the only shelter in the community, and it is not fully functional. The shelter is being built slowly as donations come in. The animals Cameron County takes in now are mostly in foster homes -- there is no space for them at the shelter.

About 20 students from Delaware Valley College and Pennsylvania high schools will be joining the Petfinder.com Foundation to help complete the construction on the shelter's building. Students will be working on fencing and dog bathing and vetting areas, building raised beds for all the kennels, and
finishing the interior of the shelter.
