“It’s a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together to enjoy a family- and pet-friendly day filled with fun activities and support a great cause,” distillery co-owner Peg Hays said in a press release.
Organizers hope attendees will bring donations for the shelter. These could include dog and cat food, cat litter, pets treats and money.
The distillery has several many activities for the day. Chef Jamie and Heather’s Home Made Ice Cream will have their food trucks on site, and Casey’s Bar will have special drinks for adults, children and pets. A wag-and-grab toy tub will allow every pet attending to take home a toy.
