HONESDALE, PA — The annual Dakota Williams Memorial Golf Outing was held on July 11 at the Cricket Hill Golf Course. On Friday, July 31, the proceeds of the outing were presented to the Dessin Animal Shelter by the Williams family, in memory of their beloved daughter and sister Dakota Williams, who was a true animal lover and friend of the Dessin Animal Shelter.

This was the fifth annual outing, and with the loyal participation of friends and sponsors, it raised over $8,000, a record amount.

Over the course of the five outings more than $23,000 has been donated for shelter projects such as the outdoor dog pavilion, inside improvements to the shelter and the general welfare of the animals in Dessin’s care.
