In conjunction with the College’s Birthday and Day of Giving each year, the Office of Alumnae Relations encourages our four-legged friends and family members to show their support for Meredith! Alumnae are invited to request a bandana and share photos of their pets wearing them following the Day of Giving. In our sixth year, over 300 alumnae and furry friends received a Meredith-themed bandana this year.
Carlissa Oakley Taylor, ‘87, shared a photo of Poppy, who earned some extra treats with this sweet pose.
Marilyn Lawrence Weiler, ’74, shared an image of Onyx. We loved that name!
Windsor Dawson raised his paws for MC in honor of Hannah Dawson, ‘13, his mom, Mary Ann Hardy Dawson, ‘78, his grandma, and Emily Dawson Davis, ‘10, his aunt.
Cynthia Simmons Messimore, ‘99, did not want the dogs and cats to have all of the fun. Earl the Turtle, who has participated each year, raised his claw for MC.
Robin Andrews Babcock, ’90, caught Charlie literally raising his paw for MC!
