I love the idea of buying a personalized brick to help support the soon-to-be-opened Unicoi County Animal Shelter.
The bricks are being sold in two sizes – a standard 4-by-8-inch brick and 12-by-12-inch.
The standard size will cost $50 each and can be personalized with up to three lines with 14 characters per line. The larger bricks can be purchased for $100 each and can include a company logo or up to six lines and 17 characters per line.
Animal Welfare Board Chairperson Sue Jean Wilson said the brick campaign is just another way for the county to rally around the shelter.
Bricks can be personalized to be in honor or in memory of a person or a pet.
Order forms for the bricks can be picked up at The Erwin Record’s office in historic downtown Erwin at 218 Gay St., the Unicoi County Sheriff’s Department at 102 N. Main Ave. or the County Mayor’s office in the Unicoi County Courthouse.
