From: Wolbach, Kristen Subject: COA News Release AMW Launches Graduation Adoption Event 05 19 2026
Good morning,
Please see the news release regarding the upcoming AMW Graduation Adoption Event.
AMW Launches Graduation Adoption Event to Help Long-Stay Pets Find Homes
AMARILLO – Animal Management & Welfare (AMW) is excited to announce a special Graduation Adoption Event taking place May 21-23. 10am-6pm. The event is designed to help some of the shelter’s longest-resident animals “graduate” from shelter life into loving forever homes.
During the three-day event, all animals that have been in the shelter’s care for 50 days or more will be available for adoption at 50% off standard adoption fees. Currently, 22 long-stay animals are waiting for a second chance, and this initiative aims to spotlight them and connect them with families ready to welcome a new pet.
Adding to the fun, the shelter is offering “Diploma Discounts” for students of all ages. Community members are encouraged to bring a recent report card or diploma, with additional adoption fee discounts based on academic performance. Students with straight A’s can receive up to an additional $20 off their adoption fee.
“Our long-stay animals have been waiting patiently for an opportunity to find a home,” said Kali Dennis, Outreach Manager at AMW. “We want to give them the recognition they deserve as they ‘graduate’ into the next chapter of their lives.”
With the arrival of summer, now is an ideal time to adopt. Families often have more flexibility in their schedules, allowing for a smoother transition and more time to bond with a new pet.
All adopted animals will be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and ready to go home with their new families.
The community is encouraged to attend, meet these deserving animals and help give them the fresh start they’ve been waiting for.
For more information, contact Amarillo Animal Management and Welfare Outreach Manager Kali Dennis at (806) 673-7821 or by email at kali.dennis@amarillo.gov.

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States, observed on the last Monday in May, dedicated to honoring and mourning military personnel who died in service. Originally known as “Decoration Day” following the Civil War, it was established to decorate the graves of fallen soldiers with flowers and flags.
Usually all banks, post offices (and carriers) closed.
This year, the Texas Panhandle War Memorial is honored to have Senior Chief Sherry Sanders (Philyaw), distinguished U.S. Navy veteran from Amarillo as our guest speaker.
Our ceremony will include patriotic music, seating for 300 guests, color guard posting of the colors, invocation, singing of the National Anthem, pledge of allegiance, recognition of the service branches, veterans, dignitaries, presentation of wreath and speeches by veteran and community leaders.
