The purpose being the protection of all animals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e      Mrs. Ruth Beadette was the first President. After a while Mrs. Beadette resigned, and the other members of the Board started a drive to raise money to build a shelter. Up to that time they were working with converted chicken coops. Stray animals were picked up, and no animals were refused.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e      Edith Sweetser became President. She announced that the county was willing to give the Society a 99 year lease on 3 acres of County owned land.  In 1958, ground was broken for the shelter. Together with Mrs. Sweetser, Sally Morrow turned the first shovel of dirt.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe dedication and formal opening of the new building took place in December 1958. On that day County Commissioner Stone presented a quick-claim deed for the 3 acres to Miss Sweetser. At that time the shelter consisted of 12 kennels with outside runs, a room for cat cages with an enclosed play area for cats, and a room with storage space, an office, a dip tub and toilet facilities, 150 yards from the kennels were temporary cages for isolation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr class=\"wixui-rich-text__text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e      During the first year of operation, 990 animals were handled.
