A BIG "thank you!" to the talented volunteers at Brightview Senior Living Towson and Westminster Ridge residences. They have taken on our huge Lake Lure Rainbow Bridge project (https://bmorehumane.org/lakelurerainbowbridge/) and are just knocking it out of the park with their creativity. Thank you all so much!

Of course, the cemetery is beautiful in every season but fall will always be my favorite time of year here. ❤️🍁

Our staff (with the help of adoptable dog Taco) are outside working their artistic magic on the river rocks for our “Restoring Memories” project.
We are also working with some incredibly talented volunteers from Brightview Senior Living and a classroom of young artists.

We are so excited for this project.

With nearly 600 requests as of this week, we could definitely use more river rocks!

Glyndon Gardens was kind enough to offer us special pricing. If anyone would like to donate rocks to our project, please email me at [email protected]

Our small act of solidarity with the families who lost their beloved memorials when the North Carolina Rainbow Bridge was washed away in the floods resulting from Hurricane Helene.
One day, we plan to incorporate a similar idea in the cemetery for everyone; for now, please participate only if you have lost a cherished keepsake at the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge.

After Hurricane Helene destroyed the Rainbow Bridge at Lake Lure Flowering Bridge in North Carolina, a beloved spot for honoring pets who have passed away, the Baltimore Humane Society is offering a way to continue those memories.

We invite pet owners who visited the Rainbow Bridge to submit their pets’ names, which we will paint on river rocks and place along a pathway in our Baltimore Humane Society Memorial Park.

To participate, fill out the form here: https://form.jotform.com/242765195858069.
