THIS WEEKEND! One Tail at a Time will have a table at the Renegade Craft Fair on Saturday, September 12th and Sunday, September 13th, from 11am-7pm. Renegade is one of the largest craft fairs in the city and will be a great way for One Tail to reach a very large audience. We will be selling a number of handmade crafts created by One Tail volunteers and showing off some of our adoptable dogs for a portion of the event.
Visit http://www.renegadecraft.com/chicago for details on the location of the event. The One Tail table is located directly in the middle of the fair just next to the beer/food tent facing North. We hope to see you there!

Dear OTAT Supporters,
One Tail at a Time is looking for a fifth board member to join our team! OTAT is a registered non-profit, no-kill organization and we run the rescue like a business, so we are looking for business-minded individuals. We work hard, but have a lot of fun and hope to find a similarly optimistic and motivated individual to join us.
Qualifications:
- A love for dogs!
- Ability to attend monthly board meetings and adoption and fundraising events on weekends (not every weekend!)
- Ability to help with volunteer duties such as transporting dogs, finalizing adoptions, and organizing events
- The drive to save animals’ lives and help grow a small rescue into a self-sustaining organization
- You must agree with our mission, which can be found on our website. www.onetail.org
It is not necessary that you have prior rescue or shelter experience, although it is a plus. We would prefer someone with fundraising or grant writing experience, but we will consider anyone who has a specific skill or passion that would help OTAT grow in the right direction. If you are interested, please email HeatherOTAT@gmail.com with a few paragraphs on why you are interested, what skills you have to offer, and the level of commitment you would be able to offer. Please include a resume if you have one. All candidates will have an informal interview with OTAT board members before a decision is made.
Feel free to ask questions and to forward this email to anyone who you think would be interested!
Thanks,
The One Tail at a Time team
Heather, Jeff, Andrea, and Anna
