Press release
Is the term, “one-of-a-kind” overused? Not in the case of the auction items at the sold-out Whiskers & Wags Gala on April 23. Along with great trips and merchandise, some are created just for this event.
How about a brunch at Chili’s? They don’t have one? Yes they do, just for you – and 15 of your best friends. Chili’s will open early just for you and your party and serve a menu (does not have to be a Chili’s item) that you decide. Also included is alcohol. And the staff is only there to serve you. What a corporate or family outing to remember.
Want more? Do you like movies? The Hometown Cinema in Gun Barrel City has reserved seating just for you and 11 more friends. You say they don’t offer reserved seating? You’re right, but for our auction winner they will. Along with popcorn, hot dog and a drink for every one of your guests.
The evening will be filled with silent and live auctions and raffles which include items such as a Waggin’ of Wine, a Margaritaville Party, and a Cajun Shrimp Boil for 16.
That’s just some of the highlights of the 4th annual Whiskers & Wags Gala benefiting Friends of the Animals Low Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic and Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake. The gala will be held at Athens Country Club on April 23.
