Last Friday the Humane Society held a benefit to raise money. Most folks know that the local Humane Society works to address animal welfare/cruelty issues, have a great reduced fee spay and neuter program, works with Harvest Hope Food Bank to provide pet food to pet owning clients and are just an all around great group.
The Millstone at Adams Pond played host to the fundraiser which had a performance by Elvis, aka Phil Urban, great food and some very cool silent auction items, including some photos that I made of some of the Arabian horses that were rescued last year and a pit bull named Pacino, who was used as a "bait" dog for dog fighting. The photos raised almost $500.00, I'll have to wait to hear a total of what was raised, but some of the other items that were donated were doggie goodies from 3 Dog Bakery, a week long getaway in Gatlinburg, Tenn., gym memberships, belly dancing lessons, jewerly, Blue Sky prints and so much more!
If you missed the auction but still want to donate, you can. Just check out their website at www.humanesc.org and you can also get information on the programs they offer.
