The newly opened Commerce Animal Shelter encourages you to adopt, donate and make a difference! You can give a homeless pet a second chance at a happy life.
Special adoption rates will be offered during this event: $75 for female dogs and $60 for males. This includes the spay/neuter, vaccines, flea treatment and a microchip. Even if you don't want to adopt, our animals love visitors so just come by to say hi and pet a pup or two.
The shelter is also in need of donations. Items needed include:

Magic Globe: A Story of the Seasons On vacation at her grandpa’s, a little girl named Mia accidentally discovers a mysterious piece of astronomical machinery. Edmund, Mia’s eccentric uncle, tricks the girl into using the tool’s secret powers to change the world’s seasons. She realizes the consequences of her actions, but Edmund doesn’t want to let the plan go.
Magic Globe is an engaging story designed to interest and challenge children from 5 to 12 years old. It has a clear educational structure with all science-related topics broken down into manageable chunks and naturally woven into the storyline. It allows children to recap knowledge they already have as well as learn multiple new concepts while following the story, which makes it perfect for mixed-ability audiences.

Tales Of A Time TravelerTime travel like never imagined! Explore ancient civilizations. Witness the birth of the universe. Journey to the edge of a black hole. In Tales of a Time Traveler, you will discover that time is not so easily defined. Time is illusive, impossible to hold. It can’t be owned. It can’t be stopped. Time travel surrounds you – from the biological clock in your brain and the changing shadows on a sundial, to the history of life on Earth. Then the story expands to the lives of stars, the time scale of the Big Bang, and the distortion of time by gravity.
