Marlborough Magazine August Edition | Page 4

EDITOR’S NOTE Painful, tired, heavy legs? Would you love to wear shorts again? W hat a warm fuzzy theme we are focused on this month. It’s so nice to take a moment to appreciate our furry friends, especially this time of the year when the SPCA are fundraising with their delicious campaign to raise funds to support rescued animals. Cupcake day is Monday 5th August. Marlborough will be smelling sweet with freshly baked cupcakes on sale all over town. I will definitely be getting my cash out as my sweet tooth will not be able to resist the temptation of an inviting cupcake…my mouth is watering just thinking about it. This is also a cause that’s close to CALL FOR YOUR COMPLIMENTARY, NO OBLIGATION DOCTOR’S VEIN ASSESSMENT & SCAN Walk in, walk out treatment, that’s reassuringly local!

There are a few ways you can help support our pet pals and get involved is events and initiatives that we are showcasing in this months edition.
