Paws to Celebrate

Paws to Celebrate 2020

Please join us at our 6th Annual Elegant and Entertaining Evening of friends and fundraising!

Friday, June 19, 2020 . 6 PM

at the Bigham Knoll Ballroom, Jacksonville

Please join us for an entertaining evening of friends and fund-raising for our beloved animal companions.

Now in our 7th year, the Paws to Celebrate fundraising event is bigger and better, and will take place on Friday evening, June 19, 2020 at the Bigham Knoll Ballroom in Jacksonville.

We invite you to don party clothes that make you look and feel fabulous.  Since we’re all animal lovers, if there’s a little fur on the lapel, we won’t notice!

  • Schmooze a little while enjoying a glass of wine and hors d’oeuvres and enter your bids in a small, but wonderful Silent auction.
  • Enjoy a delicious plated dinner with your choice of entrée, dessert, and lots of wonderful local wine.  Vegetarian and vegan options available.
  • Meet some local “furry” celebrities and hear their stories!
  • Bid on some incredible Live Auction items.
  • And, of course, you’ll have the chance to raise your paddle to donate to Friends of the Animal Shelter’s projects and programs that save hundreds of lives every year at the Jackson County Animal Shelter and in our community.

Tickets are $110 each • Purchase before June 1, 2020 and save $10/ticket
