The weekend before St. Patrick’s Day is a popular time to party, and Raccoon River Pet Rescue in Perry invites the public to do just that but for a good cause.
Tomorrow, the animal shelter will be holding a fundraiser party and concert at the Perry Elks Lodge. Doors will open at 6 p.m., and there is a $10 cover charge. Food and drinks will be available for purchase, including green beer in honor of the holiday, and there will also be a silent auction. Additionally, from 7:30-11:30 p.m., the local band the Rescue Dogs will take the stage to perform their blend of retro and current dance favorites.
All proceeds from the event will benefit the nonprofit animal shelter, which is anticipated to open its doors in the next few months. For more information on Raccoon River Pet Rescue and other upcoming fundraisers, click the link below to visit their official website.
