The Barbara Grice Memorial Spay & Neuter Clinic at the Pensacola Humane Society opened today.

Executive Director Sarah Humlie stated that the project was the dream of the late Barbara Grice, former board president and dedicated volunteer of the Humane Society, who was determined to find a solution for the problem of pet overpopulation in our area by providing spay and neuter services at reduced rates. Through Grice’s bequest and subsequent donations in her memory, this dream is now becoming a reality.

Equipment for the Barbara Grice Memorial Spay & Neuter Clinic was provided by a generous grant from the women of Pensacola Bay Area Impact 100.

The clinic is on the site of the Pensacola Humane Society at 5 North Q Street and will be open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 am – 5:30 pm.

The Pensacola Humane Society thanks the following board members for their hard work and vision in bringing this project to fruition: Shirley Brougham, Ceil Reese, Joshua Carter, Eloise de Varona, Natalie Morse, Barbara Sawyer, Paul Silivos, Skip Vogelsang, Jennifer Knisbell, Sandra Porras, Jessica Scholl and Mike Viola; and gratefully acknowledges the contributions of Cynthia Farrar, Dr. Sherry White, Dr. Mark Sprayberry and Ginny Ritenour.
