Third Annual Hogs For Dogs (and Kitties Too)
Heartland Animal Shelter Charity Ride
(Northbrook) - Rev up your Harley, Honda, or any other vehicle for Heartland Animal Shelter's Hogs for Dogs (and kitties too) Charity Ride on Sunday, September 20th. Registration for the third annual ride will start at 9:30 am at Heartland Animal Shelter, 2975 Milwaukee Avenue in Northbrook and the ride will start around 10:45.
The leisurely "Observation" ride will wind through the northern suburbs, approximately 75 miles, ending at Jesse Oaks in Gages Lake. Free food will be provided to registered attendees and free raffle tickets will be offered for each shelter donation from the animal wish list at www.heartlandanimalshelter.net. The festivities includes music provided by the "The Average Joe Band". Registration for each rider is $25 in advance ($10 for kids 12 and under) or $30 on the day of the ride. You may register online using Pay Pal at www.heartlandanimalshelter.net/events or by mailing your check to Heartland Animal Shelter, 2975 Milwaukee Avenue, Northbrook, IL 60062. Make checks payable to Heartland Animal Shelter and note "Hogs for Dogs" on the memo section of the check. Online pledges may also be made at www.firstgiving.com/has.
This year's event is expected to draw over 250 motorcycles (weather permitting) and last year's even drew around 80 motorcycles and over 125 participants. Proceeds benefit Heartland Animal Shelter, a no-kill humane organization dedicated to finding homeless animals their forever homes while educating the public on spaying and neutering their pets in order to decrease pet over population. Because Heartland is a 501(c)3 organization, all donations are tax deductible.
Information about adoption, volunteer opportunities, upcoming events, and foster opportunities are available at www.heartlandanimalshelter.net and pets available for adoption are on petfinder.com. Hogs for Dogs is presented by the friends and volunteers of Heartland. Sponsorship opportunities and raffle donations are still being accepted at the shelter.
