The Parkland Humane Society is getting ready for their “Raise the Woof” Comedy Night.
The event is to raise money for the humane society, and in the past, it has been one of their biggest fundraisers.
Marie Roels, President on the Board for the Parkland Humane Society, explains how the event first got started three years ago.
“When I had first started working for the chapter, someone had mentioned, I’m honestly don’t remember who, maybe a comedy night would work really good for the shelter to raise money. We did it two years in a row prior, took one year off and then we decided to do it again this year. It’s always been a great success.”
The event includes a comedy show from 7:00 to 10:00 in the evening on April 27th, followed by a free Old Time Dance with music by Boris Nowasad and the Melody Kings at the Ukrainian Orthodox Auditorium.
The comedy show involves a travelling group of comedians that perform to raise money and awareness for Animal Rescues and shelters.
Tickets are $25 each and can be picked up at Pet Junction, Dauphin Vet Clinic, Uptown Clinic and the Humane Society.
