Unison Engine Components (formerly Tri-Industries), Terre Haute, has generously taken on a community project to help The Humane Society of Sullivan County.  This stems from the suggestion of my husband, Rick Gaskins and Mike Ruckriegel(employees of Unison), to provide support to our local shelter.  This project is being provided by the local plant.  They purchased and are installing a chain-link fenced-in area for the dogs, installing a decorative vinyl fence (donated by Dr. Lueking), and this fall they plan to plant some trees, and do some landscaping.  Employees serving on the Community Involvement Team were here Saturday, July 17 to install the posts, and installed the decorative fencing.  See pictures below.  Next Saturday, July 24, they will return with a larger group to install the fence.  We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate all you are doing for the shelter!!
