Steve McShane is once again graciously hosting our annual fundraiser. The 2010 event will benefit:
• AFRP/Animal Friends Rescue Project
• The City of Salinas Animal Shelter
• FoCAS/Monterey County Animal Shelter
• Peace of Mind Dog Rescue
These shelters need our help more than ever. All proceeds from event ticket sales and silent auction items will be split evenly between the four organizations. The event is funded by donations from area sponsors and organized by a not-for-profit group of citizens.
Tickets are $25 at the door the day of the event. The price of admission includes:
• Food courtesy of many great area restaurants and McShane's wood-fired pizza oven • Wine from local area wineries
• The opportunity to bid on a myriad of Silent Auction items from area retailers, services, theaters, restaurants, artists, galleries and more, and chances to win great items with lots of Raffles!
Thank you to everyone who made our 1st Party For The Paws such a great success!
Party for the Paws would first like to thank the host of the event Steve McShane and McShane's Nursery & Landscape Supply! It truly was a beautiful location!! Also, a big thank you to:
• ALL of our 2009 sponsors and donors and wonderful people who donated the amazing silent auction and raffle items, food, wine, supplies, and our media sponsor, The Monterey County Herald.
• Our Garden Party entertainers, musician Michael Heller, and gardening speakers Elise Cook and Mark Boutwell
• Our volunteers, without whom we could not have run the event, and my fellow organizers Kathy Ryan, Shane Dolbier and Steve Prodes.
• And most importantly, everyone who attended!
Without all of mentioned above we would have never been able to be so successful in raising $9000 for our three beneficiaries!
Thank you all so much! We hope to see you all at our 2010 event!
