Neighbors,

The Camden County Animal Shelter currently has an abundant supply of cats and kittens available for adoption. To find homes for these companions quickly, adoption costs have been reduced to only $20 through the end of July. Cats and kittens ready for adoption have received all shots, been spayed/neutered and have a microchip for identification.

If you or your family is looking for a pet, there is no better deed you can do than to provide one of those at the Camden County Animal Shelter with a loving, caring new home.

If you cannot adopt, but would still like to help the animals at the Camden County Animal Shelter, please consider a donation of cat or dog food – wet and dry are appreciated. With literally hundreds of mouths to feed, your support enables the shelter to continue their important work.

With the generous donations from the businesses of Gloucester City it allows us to keep the cost of registration down at a reasonable rate so every child has the chance to participate.

The cost for sponsorship is $150 which includes a sponsor sign that is displayed at every game throughout the season, and possibly a team named after your business with your business name displayed on the back of the teams jerseys. (Team sponsorship will be on a first come-first served basis).

Based on the number of teams we have, those first to respond will receive their business name on a team jersey (as well as a sponsor sign).

Our goal is to order the team jersey’s the second week of July, and we will be ordering the sponsor signs by the end of July.

Checks may be made payable to \”GCYSL.\” Please mail to: Gloucester City Youth Soccer League, P.O. Box 565, Gloucester City, NJ 08030. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at 456-7448.
