Fallston, MD (April 26, 2016) – All 470 tickets are sold for the largest party of the year for Harford County’s homeless animals, but there are still plenty of ways you can participate and support the animals at the shelter! The Humane Society of Harford County’s (HSHC) Bow Wow Boogie will be held on Friday, May 13, 2016 from 7:30-11:30pm at the Richlin Ballroom, 1700 Van Bibber Road, Edgewood, MD.

Local businesses and animal lovers across the region are strongly encouraged to show their love for the animals and donate gift cards, jewelry, artwork, professional services, tickets to area attractions, and much more for the evening’s popular silent auction. Monetary donations are accepted as well. Donations are tax-deductible and net proceeds from the evening benefit an average of 4,500 animals that enter the shelter each year. Donations to the silent auction can be mailed or brought into the shelter at 2208 Connolly Road, Fallston, MD no later than Monday, May 2nd. Proceeds benefit the homeless animals of Harford County.

There are a variety of sponsorship opportunities available that provide recognition in press releases, advertisements, on HSHC’s web site and social media sites, and in the program that evening. Many of the sponsorship levels include seats at the event. This year’s “Top Dog” event sponsor is the Route 24 Ale House. Other sponsors include Baron’s K-9 Country Store, Festival Veterinary Clinic and Alpha Omega Security, LLC. To sponsor the event, contact Erin Long at 410-836-1090, x106 or erin@harfordshelter.org.
