JOIN US FOR HONORING THE ANIMALS CANDLELIGHT VIGIL, SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 14, 2008
Chance's Spot will be presenting the Second Annual Honoring the Animals Candlelight Vigil at Brown-Forman Amphitheater on Sunday, September 14, 2008. And this year, we've unveiled a new Web site that will make this year's Honoring the Animals unlike any other.
The site not only provides information about the event, which will take place on National Pet Memorial Day, but for a $10 donation visitors can have their pet's name published in this year's official program. Programs will be reserved for those who can to attend and mailed to those who cannot. In addition, the site is offers the sterling silver HTA 2008 Pet Memorial Bracelet.
This memorial service will be held outdoors at Brown-Forman Amphitheater located on River Road east of Tumbleweed. It will include musical selections and poetry-reading, as well as a moment of silence as candles are lit in memory of our beloved animal friends.
This event is free and will take place rain or shine. Those in attendance will be able to have their pet's name read out loud.
For further details on the service, including driving directions and parking
please visit the Honoring the Animals Web site at: www.honoringtheanimals.org.
