Paws for Brittany a Big Success
Sunday, May 13th, 2018 -- 6:20 AM
-Paws For Brittany, a fun run and dog walk in memory of animal-lover Brittany Zimmermann, took place on May 12 at Wildwood Park in Marshfield.Funds raised from this event will help care for homeless animals found in the community Brittany grew up in and will help many animals that she adored. A Marshfield native, Brittany was attending UW-Madison when she was brutally attacked and murdered on April 2, 2008. The crime remains unsolved. Her parents, Kevin and Jean, take some comfort in caring for Brittany’s three beloved cats, Marvin, Felix and Boo.
On May 12, more than 220 people (plus their dogs) participated in the 5th Annual Paws For Brittany event. After the walk, participants enjoyed food and raffle basket drawings. This year’s event raised $10,000, which will assist with MAPS’ day-to-day operating costs.
