March for the Animals 2008
The 13th Annual March for the Animals was held at Druid Hill Park on Sunday, April 20, 2008. The March is our largest fundraiser—a 1.5 mile walk-a-thon for people and pets benefiting The Maryland SPCA. The March for the Animals is a fun-filled day of great activities, contests, demonstrations and entertainment. This year we raised $375,000 despite the pouring rain. Thank you to everyone who participated!

Stories from the 2008 March
Meech's Paw Prints and Sandberg's Little Paws
The 4th-grade girls and their two homeroom teachers at Roland Park Country School formed two packs for the March for the Animals: Meech's Paw Prints and Sandberg's Little Paws. They raised $1,285.67 for the March through bake sales and doing chores at home. In addition, they collected sponges, peanut butter, chicken broth, towels, dish soap and laundry detergent for two months and donated it to The Maryland SPCA for use in the adoption center.
