What happened with this Health Fair? I went up to Western University and saw NO sign of a rabies clinic or health fair..the only thing going on was some sort of optometry workshop. What gives? No one affiliated with the campus seemed to know anything, either.

Some of us wish to take advantage of these free clinics for our pets because we HAVE TO due to current economic circumstances. It's disappointing when they don't happen. One of the security guards there was helpful, at least, giving me ideas about community resources and trying to find out something about this non-event.

Is there no master calendar of events at Western U?

I feel this is one of the most significant information for me. And i am happy reading your article. But wanna remark on some normal things, The website taste is great, the articles is actually nice : D. Just right activity, cheers
