Who's

Who!!

 

 

   

Ron and Linda Pickard established the non-profit 501(c)3 Sharon Charitable Trust in 1998 for the purpose of providing a sanctuary for native wildlife and the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs.  They serve as sole trustees for the trust which has now funded over $20 million in creating what is known as Horse Creek Wildlife Sanctuary and Animal Refuge.  The sanctuary has become their passion and they continue to make additions and improvements each year.
 

 

Lindia Paulson, Administrator, takes care of our paperwork and our adoption programs and attempts to keep us all generally organized.  She and her husband, Bob, live close by and keep busy with six rescued dogs and eight rescued cats.  Lindia’s idea of fun is to sneak away to the Florida panhandle for a long weekend every now and then.

 

Kevin Skoffic, Operations Manager, ensures our sanctuary’s physical operations run smoothly and our buildings, grounds, and equipment are always superbly maintained.  Kevin and his wife, Bonnie, live close by on a small farm with three horses, cows, dogs, chickens, and Betty the cat.

 

Denise Pipkins, Animal Records Coordinator, keeps the paperwork trail on all our rescued dogs.  She schedules their vet visits and orders their medications.  She also maintains our web site.  Denise and her husband, Tony, have a yellow lab at home.  Denise plays the piano in her spare time.
   

Tim Stanfill, Lead Kennel Attendant, makes sure all our rescued dogs live well.  He maintains our Villa to the highest standards and provides care to its inhabitants.  An avid outdoorsman, Tim lives in Adamsville with his wife, Candy, five dogs and a cat.
   

Lonnie Vandiver, Operations Staff, is involved in just about all the day-to-day activities that keep the sanctuary looking good and running smoothly.  He also helps out with the horses.  Lonnie joined us in 2004 as a high school student working after school.  His family’s home is just across the road from our sanctuary.  Lonnie loves to collect guns. 
   

Kim Young, Kennel Attendant, maintains our Villa and cares for our rescued dogs.  She and her son, Knox, live in Savannah with two large dogs and two cats.  Kim would be the first to tell you that all her hobbies were replaced by her son, Knox, who was born in 2008.

 

Robert Adams, Operations staff, helps to ensure our vehicles, equipment, and buildings remain in excellent condition.  He, his wife, Sherry, and their two sons live in Hardin County, not far from Pickwick Dam.  Robert enjoys black powder shooting and “making things work right.”

 

  
Donald Baugus, Operations Staff, helps to keep everything looking good around here and all our equipment in good working order.  Donald, his wife, Tammy, and their son, Brandon, live in a nearby  community.  In his spare time, he helps his father tend cattle.  Donald enjoys being outdoors--he rides ATVs, hunts, and fishes for relaxation.
