Friends of Hardin County Animal Shelter is gearing up for their annual fundraising event the Dirty Dog Bash, which will be held at The Venue at Highland Farm on Saturday, August 10.
FOHCAS President Myra Covault says the organization is excited to celebrate a special occasion that is extra special this year.
“We are so happy to be back at The Venue at Highland Farm in Elizabethtown, and it’s just a perfect location to also be celebrating not only the fundraising angle but it is our tenth anniversary of FOHCAS,” Covault said. “Please come out and celebrate that with us.”
The Dirty Dog Bash will feature dinner, a cash bar with dog-themed drinks, a drink pull, a live and silent auction, and door prizes. Covault says the event will also highlight local artists.
“We have local artist Courtney Ballard who has generously agreed to create an original piece that is going to be unveiled at our live auction,” Covault said. “You have got to be there for that. I’m getting goosebumps just thinking about how exciting that is to see what she comes up with. For our music, we have a local favorite, Kevin Jaggers, joining us again.”
FOHCAS provides financial support to the Hardin County Animal Shelter, with 100 percent of money raised used to benefit homeless dogs and cats.
“The work that we do is just life-affirming, it’s impactful,” Covault said. “Remember, proceeds from the event benefit our mission to support the work of Hardin County Animal Shelter to advocate for all homeless animals and to provide low-cost spay and neuter options for our communities.”
