Fashion Show Brings Rescues & Runways Together

Maurice’s is hosting Rescues & Runways, a fashion show to benefit the animals at C.A.R.E. Animal Rescue, on Friday, July 27 at 2 p.m. in the Battlefield Mall.

Attendees at the event will have the opportunity to watch the models show off Maurice’s latest fashion trends while bidding on some of the awesome silent auction items. Each model will escort an adoptable dog from C.A.R.E. down the runway! Some of the adoptable pets from C.A.R.E. will also be there waiting for you to play with them.

Maurice’s is also currently collecting donations at the store for the animals at C.A.R.E. If one brings items or a monetary donation for C.A.R.E., Maurice’s will give him/her a 20% off coupon to the store.

There is no cost to attend the fashion event. All proceeds raised from the silent auction will go directly to help the animals housed at the shelter. C.A.R.E. relies on fundraisers to keep the shelter operating.

HOGS for Dogs IX Benefits C.A.R.E.

HOGS for Dogs IX, the annual motorcycle ride organized by Denney’s Harley Davidson to benefit C.A.R.E. Animal Rescue, will take place this year on Sunday, July 8.

HOGS for Dogs is a volunteer driven event that has raised money for local animal shelters for the past eight years. Each year, bike and animal lovers alike come together for a beautiful 75 mile ride through the Ozarks, food, silent auction, family fun and more! Some of the adoptable pets from C.A.R.E. will be there waiting for you to play with them.

The ride will take off from Denney’s in Springfield. Registration begins at 9 a.m. with kickstands up at 10 a.m. This ride is open to all makes and models of motorcycles.

The cost to ride is a $25 donation for each rider and a $10 donation for each passenger. This includes the ride, lunch, and a HOGS for Dogs IX collectable pin. The cost for a HOGS for Dogs IX T-Shirt is a $15 donation.

There are also some great prizes this year for our top fundraisers; the top fundraiser will receive a 50” flat-screen television.

The HOGS for Dogs fundraiser is C.A.R.E.’s largest fundraiser of the year. All proceeds raised from this event will go directly to help the animals housed at the shelter. C.A.R.E. relies on this fundraiser to keep the shelter operating.
