Apollo

Apollo
Artist: Phyllis Stargardter
Sponsor: Paws For a Cause Committee

Apollo is dear to our hearts - the was our first dog, our prototype, lovingly painted by Phyllis Stargardter in an amazing nature theme with a large sun and moon incorporated into the design.

A message from Apollo
Hi! I m Apollo, and I am named for the Greek god of the sun, who rode his chariot across the sky, pulling the sun behind him. I love all things summery " warmth, flowers, birds, butterflies, and all the creatures that appear with the warm days of the year. Summer is a time of light and life. It s a time when I can play all day and romp through the fields and woods with my humans. Then, at the end of the day, we can all sleep peacefully through the soft summer night.

Celebrate summer with me, and celebrate life!

Bus

Bus
Artist: Windsor High School Art Class
Sponsor: Windsor Education Foundation Board of Directors

This adorable design was created by a Windsor High School Art Class and has been sponsored by the WEF Board of Directors.

A message from Bus
Here I am " a strong yellow creature ready to roll out on the roads every day. Yes! My name is School Bus, and I represent the hard-working vehicle that plays a crucial role in education. How can children learn if they can t get to school? I never tire of running around town to pick up all the children and deliver them to school, then coming back at the end of the day to take them home. Be sure to slow down and be careful when you see me. I have precious cargo on board!

Captain "Corn"elius Kernel (Canis Maise)

Captain "Corn"elius Kernel (Canis Maise)
Artists: Clare Brandt and Matthew Allen
Sponsor: Alstom Power, Inc

This dog was designed and painted by two very artistic Alstom Power employees!

A message from Cornelius
Hello! My name is Cornelius Kernel. My parents nicknamed me Pupcorn at an early age, but my friends considered me a hot dog because of my interest in science and engineering. I could be found on many afternoons performing experiments in my parent s basement, some of which resulted in visits from the local Fire Department. After I finished High School and College, I joined the Navy.

While at sea on a mission in the Far East, I perfected the recipe for a dog treat that later became known as the popular Sea Biscuit . This achievement resulted in my promotion to the level of Captain.

After my stint in the Navy, I settled down as a gentlemen farmer in the Connecticut Valley and now this corn dog lives in a field of plenty!

I thank Alstom Power for being my sponsor. It is very appropriate, given Alstom s various associations with heat, water, engineering, and bio fuels. You may catch me in one of the fields in the Day Hill Road area tending to my crops.
