Animal Welfare Professionals

Hi everyone! We do weekly open adoption events at our adoption center every weekend and then we have additional events off site (when local stores/venues host) but people are getting confused or don't read - even though each post has the details (time/place/what animals will be there/etc). Is there another way to distinguish between the two? Has anyone else had this issue? Did changing the names help (ex. ADOPTION EVENT and OFF SITE EVENT)? Looking for suggestions because people show up to the venues thinking it's there and getting upset with them. Thanks for your input!

Hello!  Would it be possible and helpful to name the event after the host location?  Maybe the Homeward Trails Adoption Event at (Venue name)?  Then play up the partner venue in your write up?

If you have a calendar set one for each event and include the names of the animals which will be at each event - the naming suggestion is a good idea along with link to the location.
