CenTex Silverback Throwing

Austin Silverbacks.
Our friends need some help. Organized Practice is canceled and Micaela and I are volunteering tomorrow to see where we can help.
If you feel moved to help then let’s get out there and help our neighbors.
Plenty of groups out there organizing help or you can just help on your own. It’s still raining and Central Texas needs help.

🚨 EMERGENCY HELP NEEDED with flooding in Kerr County!

The Guadalupe River is overflooded and has caused loss of life and devastation in Kerr County. We believe there will be a lot of pets hurt and displaced during this, and our support is needed.

Our teams are already in Kerrville, providing medical care onsite and beginning to transport animals. We will be working with Kerrville Pets Alive over the next several days and bringing pets from the Kerr County shelter to APA!

We need your help! Here’s how you can support:

🚙 Volunteer to drive to the hill country to pick up animals and/or bring supplies, support the intake, care and placement of onsite animals, and/or help accept and sort supplies onsite at APA! for the next few days

🐾 Sign up to emergency foster a dog or cat to make space for incoming animals

📦 Donations of supplies like pet food (dog and cat, both wet and dry), pet carriers, tarps, and towels. Supplies can be dropped off at our Cesar Chavez location until 7pm today (7/4) and then again tomorrow (7/5) from 8am-6pm

❗️ If you can support in one of the ways above, please fill out this form: https://bit.ly/44OknI4

Can’t help physically? Make a monetary donation now to support displaced pets by clicking the donate button below or visiting http://bit.ly/4llHEqU

We will share updates as we have them. Thank you for coming through for Central Texas pets!

Featured animals are those currently on-site at APA!

Centex folks.
Heads up.
There will not be any issues with using blades for hammers.

The hurricane is passing through this week and it looks to be wet weather next weekend too but the games are still 100% on schedule.

If that changes there will be immediate updates.

P.S. cleats would probably be a really good idea for caber 😉

Hey Texans going to worlds, send me a vid or a still of you throwing that you like. Gonna do something fun
