Time to cowboy (or girl!) up for the critters! Grab your favorite jeans and polish your boots for a good time supporting a great cause. The Humane Society of South Coastal Georgia’s annual Blue Jean Ball returns on Friday, October 20, from 6:00-10:00 p.m. This evening of boot-scooting under the stars will take place at the beautiful home of Robin and Davis Love III. The Love family’s Aledru wines will be showcased and served with other liberal libations to accompany delicious barbeque prepared by Bob Thompson and his crew. Southern Baked Pie Company will be supplying the desserts—can you say “Yum!
Guests will park at Wesley United Methodist Church (6520 Frederica Road) and be shuttled to the beautiful outdoor setting under the lights, provided by Malone Electric. Upon arrival, you’ll walk the “blue carpet” and strike a pose for photos by The Darkroom. Crowd-pleasers Suzy and the Bird Dogs will start the night off playing country and rock tunes, then, after the live auction action, DJ Weav (Dr. John Weaver) will take over and spin your favorite party songs to let you dance the night away.

The live auction offers some truly incredible experiences for you to bid on, like finale tickets to the Project Runway final showing during Fashion Week in NYC and a meet-and-greet with Heidi Klum. The silent auction has a wide array of unique items as well. The emcee for the evening will be the always charismatic Akil Jackson. HSSCG volunteers in red shirts will be there working hard too, so feel free to stop them and give them a pat on the back for the services they provide for the animals. HSSCG chairs and committee members are working hard to make this a night to remember.

Fundraisers like this are critical to HSSCG because they are 100% donor funded and last year alone performed close to 2,000 spay and neuter surgeries and adopted close to 1,000 animals. For more information about HSSCG or to purchase tickets to the Blue Jean Ball, visit hsscg.org. For more information on corporate sponsorships please call 264-6246 ext, 109 or email virginia@hsscg.org. Hurry and get your tickets today because last year’s inaugural event sold out and we know word has spread about what fun it was. Don’t get left in the dust!
