This special event includes a social hour, silent auction, crab dinner, the always-popular dessert dash, and a live auction and paddle raise. Throughout the evening, you’ll also hear powerful stories of impact and learn about the progress and bright future of our Longview Campus. Best of all, every dollar raised stays in Longview, directly supporting the daily care of pets in our community.
