(Black Dog Animal Rescue to host 4th annual Bark and Wine fundraiser on Oct. 9)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHEYENNE- Dog lovers and lovers of a good time are invited to enjoy a fun evening out on the
town while benefiting a great cause.
Black Dog Animal Rescue will host the 4th annual Bark and Wine fundraising event from 6-9
p.m. on Oct. 9 at the Cheyenne Depot Museum. The gala will include a buffet dinner, live music
and a silent auction. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go towards BDAR’s efforts to provide
services for Wyoming pets and pet owners.
“Our goal is to not only raise funds to support our non-profit programs, but to also bring more
awareness to the community and the state about the mission of BDAR,” said Annie Wood, a
member of BDAR’s Board of Directors. “We work across the state of Wyoming to provide
services for shelter pets in need of a second chance.”
A ticket to the event will buy a buffet dinner catered by Morris House Bistro, accompanied by
live music set in the historic Depot Museum. The highlight of the gala will be the silent auction,
where guests are invited to bid generously on a large selection of items. A cash bar will also be
available.
Bark and Wine is BDAR’s largest annual fundraising event. If the fundraising goal is met, the
proceeds will account for nearly one-fifth of the money needed to run the organization annually.
Since 2008, BDAR has rescued more than 1,500 shelter dogs that would have otherwise been
euthanized. The organization partners with municipal agencies, veterinarians and shelters across
the state as well as with the public. It strives to create lasting relationships with the Wyoming
community by bringing the plight of shelter pets and the rewards of adoption and volunteerism to
the forefront of public discussion in our state.
“BDAR operates with a staff of just three and does the work of so many more,” Wood said. “The
organization wouldn't be able to operate without its amazing volunteers who not only foster, but
also run multiple programs.”
Anyone who supports Black Dog Animal Rescue and its life-saving work are invited to attend
the event. Tickets can be purchased online at www.bdar.org. Single tickets are $35 or $65 for
two. Online donations are also accepted.
