Folks can stop by the third Taste of Summer Charity Barbecue for lunch at the Innovation Centre, where Golden West Swift Current is grilling up the burgers in support of Southwest Crisis Services. For just $10, you can help ensure that when SWCS leaves with 100 per cent of the day's proceeds, they are leaving with a total that has the generosity of Swift Current in every dollar. 

Hello my name is Sampson!

I am an older boy looking to find his forever home, I am a very laid back boy that is willing to go with the flow. Staff are always commenting how unfazed I am by the hustle and bustle of shelter life.

I am great with other dogs and would also do well with kids. If I sound like the dog for you. Come and meet me today.
