BOCA RATON — The Shoppes at Village Pointe and the Tri County Humane Society are partnering for the Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce’s Boca Festival Days to create a party that celebrates the entire family.
“Paw-ty Time” is a free event that will feature pet adoptions, a happy dog contest, pet photography, live bands, dancers, art displays, specialty vendors, food, a cruise raffle and more. It is scheduled Sunday, August 12 from 4-7pm. The Shoppes at Village Pointe is located at 6018 SW 18th Street in Boca Raton.
“We are delighted to be sponsoring the Tri County Humane Society for Boca Festival Days,” said Yvonne Boice, owner of the Shoppes at Village Pointe. “This event will increase awareness about the wonderful pets they have available for adoption and will raise funds through an array of exciting raffle items, including a Caribbean cruise donated by Fugazy Travel.”
The owner of two dogs, Boice selected the Tri County Humane Society as her charity to sponsor for Boca Festival Days because she felt the organization was a good fit with her family-oriented plaza. Tenants there include Donna Pascoe Salon, WRPBiTV, Endless Ener-Chi Wellness Center, Michael’s Body Scene, the Boca Dance Studio, and many others.
“This is going to be an exciting party for the entire community,” said Suzi Goldsmith, Executive Director and Co-Founder of the Tri County Humane Society. “It will really be an all-out celebration with fun things for everyone to enjoy. We are thrilled that Yvonne chose us to be her partner for this event and we look forward to showcasing many of the incredible animals we have that are waiting for good homes.”
At this event, if people consider adopting a pet, they will be entitled to a $25 discount on the fee. The Tri County Humane Society is a 100% no-kill organization and a 100% not for profit shelter. On going fundraising helps meet these animal’s needs for the best possible vet care and nutrition.
