12th Annual Berkshire Humane Society Holiday Auction

09:11AM / Wednesday, October 07, 2009

PITTSFIELD, Mass. - Tickets are on sale now for the 12th Annual Berkshire Humane Society Holiday Auction. The event is scheduled for Saturday, November 14th at the Crowne Plaza in Pittsfield. Tickets are $25.00 per person, which includes passed hors d’oeuvres, pasta stations and a free ticket for a raffle item of your choice. The doors will open at 5pm for the Silent Auction, the Special Needs Raffle and the live entertainment. 

The Live Auction portion of the evening is scheduled for later in the evening. There will be a $5.00 Auction Only admission fee for those who do not want the food portion of the event. An assortment of the auction items will be posted as the date drawers near on the BHS website, www.berkshirehumane.org.

“The Holiday Auction continues to be one of our premiere events that helps keep the shelter operating all year”, says John Perreault, Executive Director of the Berkshire Humane Society. “We count on the revenues from this auction to help programs such as the free humane educational programs for schools, low cost spay neuter programs and SafePet foster homes for families in crisis,” he added.

For more information or ticket reservations, please call Diane at 413-447-7878 ext 31.

The Berkshire Humane Society has placed over 15,000 homeless animals into new and loving homes since 1992; they also offer free humane education visits and tours for area school children, a community pet-food bank for economically distressed pet owners, and works in cooperation with The Elizabeth Freeman Center to provide foster care assistance for the pets of women in crisis through PetSafe.

BHS receives no public funding and relies on memberships and donations to continue to help animals and people. In 2007, BHS adopted out 784 homeless animals from Berkshire County and its neighboring borders. The shelter is open Tuesday - Saturday 10am - 4pm, Thursday evenings 5-8pm, and Sundays 1-4pm. The shelter closes at noon on the last Wednesday of each month for staff meetings. The phone number is 413-447-7878 and website is www.berkshirehumane.org.
