12 JUNE 16 – JUNE 22, 2017 BROOKLYN MEDIA GROUP Model pets hit Coney Island BY DANIELLE KOGAN EDITORIALBROOKLYNREPORTER.COM Pets hit the Coney Island Boardwalk for the neighborhood's seventh annual pet day on Saturday, June 10, striking a pose for passersby in front of Deno's Wonder Wheel Amusement Park. With the entry fee being just two cans of pet food, all proceeds were donated to Sean Casey Animal Rescue (SCAR), a not-for-profi t no-kill animal rescue organization based in Kensington. The competition was steep, with the pets competing for the funniest and most creative costumes. One category had pets and their owners donning related duds to vie for the best dual costume award. The shelter is known for taking in creatures with even the most pressing of medical conditions. It is also a safe haven for wildlife rehabilitation, and the organization boasts of its record of rescuing over 8,000 animals from Animal Care and Control since 1998. Jen Gapay, the event organizer, told this paper, that the contest was near and dear to her heart because her dog, Tanzie, was a rescue from Sean Casey. “If you rescue an animal, you are literally saving a life and there isn't really anything more important than that!” she stressed. 30-YEAR FIXED RATE MORTGAGE1 4.000% 4.067% APR One of the best rates in town!2 Closing Costs Discounts Available3 • Free Prequalification First Time Homebuyer Loans • FHA4 Contact Amy DeLeon to learn more: (516) 500-6641 [email protected] • NMLS #7982 1 Rate information as of 06/05/17.
