The Mr. and I are involved with several different rescue organizations and shelters here in Maine. But our love for dogs and passion for rescue reaches into our professional lives as well. Especially the Mr.-he works with the AHL Affiliate of the Phoenix Coyotes hockey team, the Portland Pirates, selling corporate sponsorships. In other words, he sells the signage on the dasher boards, in the arena, gets the giveaway items and also organizes game promotions.
He is currently planning an event with our favorite doggy daycare, Camp Bow Wow, who also works with rescues to foster adoptable pups at camp, to plan an adopt a dog night on Friday, March 29th. It’s such a great event, people can go and watch a night of hockey and also meet a bunch of adoptable pups!
If you’re local to Portland and would like to go to the game that night (3/29, 7:00pm), you can buy discounted tickets and part of the proceeds of every ticket purchased will be donated to Canine Commitment! In addition,Camp Bow Wow will be on hand in the Main Lobby throughout the game with a number of dogs looking for “FURever” homes! You can purchase your tickets here. And, as if that’s not enough, if you stop by the Camp Bow Wow table in the Main Lobby on game night to make a donation of cash, food or a dog toy you will receive 2 tickets to a future Pirates game!
If you’re not local, but are feeling especially generous and would like to help support this great rescue any donation amount would be appreciated! Donate Now!
Nola LOVES Camp Bow Wow, and we love that they are more than just a doggie daycare. We hope you can help us help support their cause!
Nola being silly at camp.
What a fantastic event and, of course, I’m delighted to hear how involved and dedicated you both are to rescues. Hope it is a wonderful success.
What a great event! I wonder if our hockey team here would ever do something like that…
