Last weekend the Greater Whitsunday Vets held an open day for their brand-new Proserpine clinic. It was a great, albeit hot, day with many visitors coming from all over to see the clinic and browse the stalls. There wasn’t a plain face in sight as all the children proudly showed off their new looks thanks to the free face-painting booth.
"Over 750 people attended our new clinics open day,” said Georgia Bowser, Practice Manager, recounting that the day was a great success. She wanted to give thanks to their sponsors and partners for providing support allowing the day to go off without a hitch: Provet, Lisa from Royal Canin, Ainsley from Hills, Jaime from Zoetis, and Jason from MSD.
There was much to see and do, from clinic tours to 32 market stalls to peruse. You could even register yourself and your pet with the clinic staff to enter into a raffle! All the stalls and prizes were local or animal related, so many took home a piece of Proserpine that day, whether that was a brand-new bridle for their horse or a fabulous Hawaiian shirt decorated with the regions map. You could even adopt a hand-crocheted chicken!
“More than 100 people took part in our clinic tours, and they also enjoyed petting our little piglet, baby guinea fowls, alpaca, and dogs. They were a huge hit with the visitors especially the children,” said Georgia, “Rilo, with her ice cream van, was kept busy all day thanks to the hot weather!"
The new clinic was happy to have received such support on their open day, from the bush to the beach, they’ll be here for you 24/7 for you animal emergency. Or book in an appointment for one of their many offered services!
The new Proserpine clinic is open Monday – Friday: 8:30 am - 5.00pm and their Bowen clinic is open Monday – Wednesday & Friday 8:30am – 5pm, and Thursday: 8:30am - 7pm. Please know that both clinics are closed on the weekend.
From small pets to horses to livestock, the Greater Whitsunday Vets Services are here for all you animal needs.
