Keith on the radio SUNDAY

by

Keith will be on interviewed on Seattle’s 98.9 kwjz today at 4:30. He is appearing with our friend Yoram Bauman of Comedy Underground to talk about their non-profit comedy benefits and Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest’s upcoming comedy night show on October 7th.

If you’re in the Seattle area and haven’t already RSVP’d for this event, please do so by adding your name to the Evite list. The current one-night record for funds raised at non-profit comedy night is $5,100, raised by Puget Sound Community School – I hope CSNW can make a new record for the Cle Elum Seven!

Update: Looks like the show will be taped and will actually air early Sunday morning on the Public Affairs program. I’ll provide more details as we have them.

Even if you can’t make the show, you can listen to Keith’s interview live on the radio or on kwjz’s website.

Right now! I meant to post this earlier, but messed it up. You should be able to access the archives soon. If you read this within the next few minutes, you’ll be able to catch the end of the interview. Link to Martha Norwalk’s Animal World: http://www.marthanorwalk.com/ and the link to the radio station is: http://www.newschannel1150.com/ (clicking on “listen live” will get you the live broadcast).

Update: to listen to the show, click on the marthanorwalk link above, then on “Visit the Animal World audio archive” J.B.’s interview is half way though Hour 3.

New CSNW Forum!

by

The Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest Forum is now live! Roslyn from Montreal has been kind enough to offer to help me administrate the forum/discussion board and she’ll be answering a lot of your technical and other questions from that site.

The forum is a place where people can more easily get to know each other and to talk with one another about the chimpanzees at CSNW and related topics – the CCC group asked for it, and we’ve delivered! I think it’s going to be a lot of fun! We’ve created several forum topics to begin with and will see if others seem to naturally develop as people use the board. You must first register to make posts – you’ll see how to do this once you go to the main page.

See you on the forum!! chimpsnw.org/forum

P.S. – Shelly K. is a moderator on the forum and will be helping with a few things including making sure the board rules are being followed (common sense stuff about being polite – please read the full rules on the forum) and moving messages to more appropriate topics, if need be.

PAWSwalk – more fun that a hangar full of dogs

by

Keith and I manned and womanned the CSNW booth at PAWSwalk yesterday. I had no idea I was going to have so much fun. Keith has been going for years, but this was my first time. We talked to so many wonderful people and I must have patted hundreds of dogs. The Seattle ‘animal community’ is awesome, and PAWS is an organization to admire. Hopefully there are a few new friends on the blog today that stopped by our booth yesterday. I hope to see you at the walk next year too!

Keith put more straw in the outdoor area today and Jody was one happy chimpanzee. She even brought some inside with her to make a nest. Jody often lays on her back holding her feet.
