36th Annual Spring Fling Gala

Helen Woodward Animal Center’s Spring Fling Gala, presented by Trixie’s Trust, invites supporters out to the dance floor for “Boots & Bling,” featuring a special performance by Nashville-based artists Runaway June.

Headed by committee co-chairs Jamie Carr and Maytha Shaffer, event guests will enjoy a taste of country with Americana-inspired cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and a dinner of classic and innovative dishes. Keeping with tradition, committee restaurant chair Ann Dizney has secured an impressive restaurant lineup including Amalfi Cucina Italiana, Beeside Balcony, Bluewater Boathouse, The Fish Market, Poseidon on the Beach, and Lakehouse Resort, to name a few. Attendees can mingle with four-legged VIPs while browsing the silent auction, and a bustling live auction will include exclusive items and getaways. VIP tickets include a special meet & greet with Nashville-recording artists Runaway June.
