Lisa Lowder
A native of Northwest Arkansas, Lisa is a physical therapist who has lived in Jefferson for 17 years. She has a 7-year-old rescue named Riley who rules the roost!
"My dream for Woofstock is that it become more than just an event by combining a little healing with expanding community awareness and togetherness... set to a groovy vibe... in giving back to an organization that realistically benefits us all. And by doing so, that even more stray and abandoned animals in Marion County will get the help they desperately need."

Event Co-Chair
Ashley Mayes
Growing up in East Texas, Ashley has always had a love for animals. After making Lake o' the Pines her home, she realized the immense need for rescue in Marion County. Ashley and her husband, Terry, began fostering in 2019 after witnessing the rescue of 120 abandoned dogs and cats. They have 5 rescued fur babies of their own, and routine fosters in their care.

"Woofstock is my opportunity to give back in a very real way - to help support all the people who work hard to save every life they can. It's a way to spread awareness, educate the community, and have a great time!"
