2011 Holiday Raffle Prizes
Wednesday, 11 January 2012

We are thrilled to report that our 2011 Holiday Raffle was a resounding success! Our goal was to raise $10,000 through raffle ticket sales. Not only did we reach that goal--we exceeded it by selling a total of $12,200 in raffle tickets, with two "matching" donations of $480. A grand total of $12,680 raised! This is the most money ever raised through this volunteer-run fundraiser. A big thank you to everyone who celebrated our raffle success by coming to this past weekend's Raffle Drawing party at Lee Harvey's. The raffle party photos by professional photographer Mike Hanna will be available for viewing shortly.

Raffle Prize Drawing Party
Tuesday, 03 January 2012

Our Raffle Prize Drawing Party will be held this Sunday, January 8th at Lee Harvey's from 3—5pm. All raffle prize winners will be announced AND we will announce how much money was raised during our fundraiser.

It should be a very merry place to spend a Sunday afternoon, and dogs (as well as their humans) are invited to attend. Professional photographer Mike Hanna will be taking photos of all the four-legged cuties and their humans.

A couple of gift baskets will be awarded as door prizes for attendees only--full of wine, Mary Kay products and Cowboys Stadium tour passes. PLUS a $10 donation to the shelter will get you Happy Hour prices on all well drinks and draft beers! So please invite a few friends to join our celebration.
