FLORENCE-The Furry Fall Festival & Fundraiser is a family friendly event presented by the Halfway Home for Animals. The Festival will be held on Saturday, October 14 from 10am-2pm and is easily located at 1505 Florence Boulevard (Florence) in the parking lot next to McDonalds.

Animal Shelters are overflowing with dogs, cats, puppies and kittens. In addition to on-site Shelter adoptions, Rescue Organizations help pave the way for many animals to find their forever homes. In most cases the organizations find foster homes for the animal(s) to stay in before they leave for adoption, pay for medical bills, interview potential adopters, evaluate the dog/cat, and try to find the best match possible. The Furry Fall Festival & Fundraiser salutes these Rescues as well as the local Shelters and would like you to meet these wonderful people. Fundraising efforts will be held at the Festival with the goal of $5000 in cash and supplies to be distributed.

You can also help the animals in the first two weeks leading up to the Fall Festival: All Lauderdale County McDonalds will have a donation box where you can drop off cat and/or dog food, treats, bedding, toys and any other supplies you would like to donate. Additionally, from October 8-14 the store Five Below (in Cox Creek Shopping Center) will donate 10% of your sale to the Halfway Home for Animals if you show them a Furry Fall Festival & Fundraiser flyer (available at all Lauderdale County McDonalds locations).

Tickets for all Festival activities can be purchased on-site for a nominal fee, and allow you to join in the fun with face painting, balloon animals, games and a Dessert Walk. There will also be multiple door prizes and a silent auction with many unique items. And…you may even find your new best friend among the dogs and cats brought to the Furry Fall Festival & Fundraiser by the local Animal Shelters. For additional information call 256-764-3335. We hope to see you onOctober 14!
