Old Dog Haven Auction Saturday, October 09, 2010 The work that is done by Old Dog Haven is made possible due to the support and donations from its fan base, loyal followers and old dog lovers, like yourself. During these challenging economic times, there are more old dogs finding their way to shelters and abandonment in the streets. While many people financially support the mission of Old Dog Haven, the demands are increasing. Therefore, why not have an auction fundraiser to provide a boost to the needs of the over 180 dogs in their care -- and have some fun while doing it. TIME:         5:30pm - 10:00pm WHERE:    Everett Holiday Inn Address:  3105 Pine St, Everett (map) COST:        $50./person INFO:          mikejen.sevigny@verizon.net There will be silent auction followed by a sit down dinner and a live auction. A cash bar and free refreshments will be available all evening. There will be several entrees from which to choose (grilled salmon, chicken tarragon, vegetarian stuffed shells and a vegan option).  Please indicate your preference when you make your reservation. Ticketing Information: You may access a form  to buy tickets via mailing a check or,  buy your tickets online (surcharge applies) Room packages are also available at the Holiday Inn for all auction attendees. Please contact the hotel directly and indicate that you are part of the Old Dog Haven auction when you make your reservation. Dogs are allowed in the room for a pet fee of $40.00. Doors open at 5:30 p.m.  This is an event for the dogs, with the dogs and because of the dogs. Gather a number of friends or coworkers together and sponsor a table for a great night out as a group.

We hope you will join Old Dog Haven in their  mission to increase the number of senior dogs saved in 2010/2011!
