On June 25, the Billings office made a “paws-itive” impact by providing sponsorship and volunteers to help support the local Tails & Trails Fun Run. The local Billing Jaycees chapter holds this annual event to support the community’s animal-minded organizations, including Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter, Freckles & Tom Cats, and Tails as Old as Time.

The fun run began at Zoo Montana and continued through the Shiloh Conservation Area trail system before returning to the starting line. The event was a huge success with perfect weather and a great turnout of runners and local vendors. Five Billings team members (and local Jaycee members), Alexis Sundheim, Eric Ler, Colson DeCarlo, and Bridget and Brad Boehm, volunteered from setup to teardown of the event. Participants received a branded t-shirt and medal at the finish line. Their furry-running companions also received recognition with a medal for their collars.
